Meet Palin’s Hacker: David Kernell
…The story was briefly posted Wednesday to the 4chan forum where the hack first surfaced. Bloggers have connected the handle of the poster, “Rubico,” to an e-mail address, and tentatively identified the owner as a college student in Tennessee.
Threat Level was unable to reach the student by phone because his number is unlisted. His father, when reached at home, said he could not talk about the matter and would have no comment. The father is a Democratic state representative in Tennessee.
Did you catch that last bit there? I know what you’re thinking; OK, Shawn, so his dad’s a Democratic Congressman, that doesn’t mean the hack was political.
I read though the emails… ALL OF THEM… before I posted, and what I concluded was anticlimactic, there was nothing there, nothing incriminating, nothing that would derail her campaign as I had hoped, all I saw was personal stuff, some clerical stuff from when she was governor…. And pictures of her family.
I then started a topic on /b/, peeps asked for pics or gtfo and I obliged, then it started to get big
Earlier it was just some prank to me, I really wanted to get something incriminating which I was sure there would be, just like all of you anon out there that you think there was some missed opportunity of glory, well there WAS NOTHING, I read everything, every little blackberry confirmation… all the pictures, and there was nothing, and it finally set in, THIS internet was serious business, yes I was behind a proxy, only one, if this shit ever got to the FBI I was f—ed, I panicked, i still wanted the stuff out there but I didn’t know how to rapid[share] all that stuff, so I posted the pass on /b/, and then promptly deleted everything, and unplugged my internet and just sat there in a comatose state
I’m not saying he did this with the approval of his father, I’m saying this is the mindset among Democrats online — that it’s OK to invade someone’s privacy, so long as they’re Republican. Think about this, how nuts did Liberals (and other Americans, to be fair) go when the NSA spying story was splashed on the frontpage of the New York Times? Yet it’s OK to hack into someone’s personal email so long as you find something ‘incriminating’ or something that would ‘derail her campaign’? So just who is this Congressman’s son with a keyboard?

I’ll bet it’s his father who’s in the ‘comatose state’ tonight…
Update: Ouch. Looks like someone got a visit from the Feds…

The constitution of the US states that Cruel and Unusual punishment is against the law. Yet you seem to condone anal rape as an appropriate punishment for invasion of privacy? Are you sure you love America or would you be better suited in perhaps a theocratic Middle Eastern nation?
WTF; No this is NOT the mindset of the Democrats.
This is the mindset of 4chan/b/
It is my opinion that the person who wrote this… REALLY does not get it.
REALLY does not.
I’d conjugal visit that.
If you had the slightest clue what 4chan is and how the army of anonymous works you wouldn’t have linked this to ‘democrats online,’ in what I can only call a desperate smear campaign. It makes me wonder, if his dad was a judge would you have blamed the justice department? Or if he were a teacher, the school system? Anonymous is its own army, it follows its own rules and it attacks whomever and whatever it wants, Republican, Democrat, even the Prez himself if they can find a way.
Lurk Moar as the ones in the know like to say.
Man, reading through these comments… what is it with you Republicans and your anal sex kink? Ick.
About 7 people have posted my personal info on the site with the thought that it would irritate me somehow. I post as myself, Shawn Wasson, the host of a radio show. It’s not hard to find me — though your address and email addresses are incorrect.

Thanks. I have nothing to hide from.
Hey genius, have you ever thought that maybe, just maybe Shawn didn’t use his home address to register this domain name?
You really hit him where it hurts. What are going to do next, hand out his business cards?
Wait, what did this person, ‘with Democratic family members’, prove? He couldn’t find any dirt… hence the NOTHING in bold above. He hacked he email account, pretended to be her and provided information to change her password with full intent on defaming her and he found NOTHING.
He’s 20, jackass.
No, it’s not just you. Even taking the partisan politics out of the equation for a minute (which I think played a part, his dad is a Tenn. Rep.) this is just flat-out illegal.
a) those of you screeching about how Palin was using this account to transact state business are wrong. Period. Even the hacker Himself said he didn’t find anything incriminating.
b) as far as the illegal wiretap issue goes, you all need to get a grip. They were tapping the phones of people that were suspected of talking to terrorists. If you didn’t fit the profile, they didn’t tap your phone. They could not care less about how much dope you smoked on Friday or who your sister is banging.
Good Lord, Shawn, someone must have linked to you from Daily KOS, DU or HuffPo
America Lover,
Convert, no. I have no doubt that they feel as passionately about liberal/progressive values as we do about conservative values and they feel the need to express their views about them And I welcome their views as long as they keep a civil tongue in their head and keep it legal.
It just so happens that they’re wrong.
LOL.
