It would have been rather embarrassing for both AT&T and Apple if they really cared. It appears that a security breach with the iPad 3G has exposed the email address of some users. It was not clear exactly how many email addresses could have been stolen, but an AT&T spokesman reported that the security problem was rectified in 24 hours. That means that potentially hundreds of thousands of email address could have been stolen. AT&T has promised to warn users who they believe may have been affected by this scandal. I seriously doubt Apple or AT&T will lose any sleep over this kerfuffle and it is plausible to assume that most iPad users either won’t care or will never know what transpired. When people like you product, they are willing to ignore or forgive just about anything. Apple had better hope that it continues to make quality products or something of this nature will not go over so smoothly in the future.
