if they didnt want people to get into it, they wouldve picked something like cartwheel6543 something that no one would ever have guessed. it may very well be something to play around with us.

Yeah...I mean, granted, nobody in Hollywood is exactly the smartest tool in the shed, let alone some intern or other charged with guarding the viral marketing websites...

...but Paramount is a little too obvious. AT LEAST they could've gone something like "Paramount923A" etc -- using passwords like "Paramount," "JJ," "Abrams," "Lost," or any other such may be OOG in context, but in everyone's mind the connection is there and pretty obvious. I'm sure haxx0rz have probably tried those very passwords before --- and maybe they reduced the security level recently to a cheesy "Paramount" in hopes of fishing for an intrepid pseudo-hacker...(no offense, Doc)

[deletia]

But seriously- If they meant to let folks in, why would they do it with a password that's totally out of game? From a gaming/storytelling perspective, that's just weak. We're supposed to believe in these characters' stories, not think of them as creations of Paramount Studios. They could have chosen an equally easy to guess in-game password--like cornbread.

Man that was funny.

It was like you all were running around tripping over eachother while the puppetmasters shouted, "Dance, monkeys, dance!"

So, if this proves the Puppetmasters are watching, allow me to make one simple request:

...the next jamielovesteddy.com video...??? Hot webcam striptease.
C'mon, JJ....push the envelope!

Actually, I doubt they'd give us a password that'd let us do something potentially vulgar. Imagine what sort of things someone could put up on Jamie's Photobucket with such access. They could also trash it in other ways, and would have to be willing for someone to be able to delete the account. The credentials on the account would also be in total jeopardy. This all being the case, I think it unlikely they ever intended to have the account broken into.

I can believe such an inept choice of password could be made. It certainly isn't the first time such a thing has been done.

Exactly, with my experience with photobucket I know that if they would have deleted the pics she linked onto the myspace stuff and then uploaded a pic to the PB account with the same name as the old ones it would be given the same URL. Thus "we" could have put anything we wanted on "their" myspace pages. I doubt they wanted this to happen.
EDIT-"they" in the first sentence being those that changed the pics after it was hacked. Which could have been anyone.
