Would it make you feel better if Russia defense contractors also had data security problems?

Hackers got in to a contractor to the FSB, the Russian state police security bureau, and stole 7.5 TERABYTES of data! This is an old article posted last July, but it's still good for a laugh. They got information showing how Russia, Our Old Friends, were trying to de-anonymize TOR, cut themselves off from the world-wide Internet, etc.

I love it when other people find their security methods are also not up to snuff.
