McAfee kills Celeb Gossip Site

The site, imnotobsessed.com, was blocked by McAfee Security Products if you use Firefox. Interesting to note IE is safe. (insert joke here)

Vera the site owner notes: I'm dry heaving as we SPEAK!! Can't believe this happened!! I've left a dozen messages and am still waiting on a reply. Please be patient and excuse me while I rip my hair out.

Even though you dish celeb dirt and we dish security dirt, we all feel this way when dealing with product #FAIL. Vera, Contact me and I can provide some contact information for the folks @McAfee who can fix this immediately. My wife loves your site and I have learned, "Happy Wife = Happy Life!"

LifeLock can suck it!



If Todd Davis's face looks familiar, it's because it's plastered all over subway stops and billboards—right next to his social security number—on ads for the personal security company LifeLock. His lifelock? It's been picked 13 times.

According to a report by the Phoenix New Times, Todd Davis's bold invitation to identity thieves has been accepted over and over and over. Since 2007, Todd Davis-but-not-Todd Davis (sorta like Fake Locke) has failed to pay back a $500 loan, neglected to pay several AT&T bills, and racked up thousands of dollars in credit card debt.

But don't feel too bad for the guy—Davis and his 13 horcruxes only serve to illustrate how shitty LifeLock's service was to begin with. In March, the FTC fined LifeLock $12 million and claimed that their services amounted to little more than a scam. According to FTC Chairman Jon Leibowitz, "the protection they provided left such a large hole...that you could drive that truck through it." He was referring to a huge truck with Davis's mug and social security number on it. [Phoenix New Times via Wired]

DUI in the making

We have all heard "don't drink and drive because you might spill your beer"! This woman used a cup holder. I guess problem solved.

She wonders why her life is a FAIL!
