Who the hell still uses AOL? Apparently, CIA boss John Brenner. The New York Post [nypost.com] had several phone conversations with an individual who claimed that he gained access to Brenner's email and phone accounts, downloaded a number of classified documents and posted them on Twitter. The hacker identified himself as a high school student, and part of a group called "Crackaz With Attitude". Government officials say [cnn.com] that the FBI and Secret Service are investigating the matter, but deny that any classified materials were compromised.

The cracker remains at large, for now. He also talked to Wired, providing some detailed information on how he pulled it off [wired.com].
