I wish there was a book that collected famous security incidents in this writing style.
I enjoyed it, but the reveal was a little disappointing.
Why disappointing? Because it seemed so simple? To me, that is the appeal, since the complexity of the hack has an inverse relation to the level of incompetency of the bureaucratic oversight.
I mean, yeah. It just felt anticlimactic.
I had the opposite experience. I got exhausted trying to read this article and ended up losing interest less than half way through.
