Well that's truly comforting, Eos. Guys, vote "No" if you're hopeful you won't be hacked in 14 days, but who can say 15, 16, 17 days after the onset of the experiment.
You don't have to be right all the time Eos. You tend to try and find any little fault in what everyone says just so you can correct it. I'm sorry, but what I said is uncorrectable because I designed it to be gray. Life is gray, if you view it from the perspective of black & white. There's no telling what can occur, and you even submitted to that mentality by countering my post with a "What if?" that falls in the domain of a hopeful success with this experiment. I'm not saying I'm right or wrong, and I'm not saying voting "Yes" or "No" is correct, even if I claim one is "the only reasonable act of pragmatism." All I wish to do is invite people to step outside their closed boundaries into a world of potential, because I'm willing to bet many of the "No" votes did not approach the subject from the view you did, but rather the hopeful notion that this experiment will succeed and thus "prove" their accounts are safer.
tl;dr? Anything is possible. I'm right, I'm wrong, Eos is right, Eos is wrong, Paul is right, Paul is wrong. Does it matter? Who cares. Accept the inevitability of the uncertain and prepare to adapt when the moment comes.
