Using that Apple e-mail account ... meant I was vulnerable to being hacked

Because Apple users are so dumb, Apple have to make it extra easy to crack open your account when you forget your password, or leave your Apple product in a bar in Redwood City.

Of course, because Apple so readily reveals your account details, it makes it extra easy for someone else to get them too.


Footnote:
Oh, the author of the article tried to blame Amazon for Apple's lax security, but read past the title. By his own reasoning, he might equally have titled the article: Pizza-hut still an internet security menace.
