...or our own trade-secret violations, I guess. A tipster tells us there's a Google lockdown:
I have a friend who works at Google. i asked what the word is internally about valleywag. [She/he] said [she/he]'s been warned, along with a bunch of people in her department not to give you tips, passwords or anything. [she/he] stopped short of saying there was a company wide email sent out...[She/he] claims that you have passwords and access to their intranet, at least thats what [she/he] was told. so [she/he] was warned with the rest of [his/her] department not to give anything out.
Gee, Google, there ARE research methods that don't involve using you. And there aren't exactly mega-hackers working here — more like an English major. But it's cool to see the security team snap into action.
Anyone else hear about a lockdown? Is Yahoo telling people they must leak to a trashy gossip blog? E-mail tips@valleywag.com and save me from doing real work.
