From my email inbox (I had the Wall Street Journal, aka WSJ, subscription since my undergraduate business school days, and always enjoyed being on top of the world's financial and other breaking news (for example, I just headed over there to ge the link to WSJ online to post later in this paragraph, and discovered AT&T wants to buy T-Mobile!). The wsj.com subscription came with the paper student subscription, and seems to have kept going even though I no longer get the paper version. It may be possible to sign up for the alerts with or without the subscription, head on over to the Wall Street Journal and find out!

This just goes to show you, nothing is 100% safe when it comes to anything manmade, and that includes technology!
What is also interesting is that you never realize the REAL companies behind the scenes that make your everyday work or home tech life possible...until something goes wrong. :)
You can just imagine the constant in-house attempts to detect any flaws or loopholes in the security systems before a malicious outsider does...hard work!
