LOTS OF PEOPLE READ SOMEONE ELSE'S BORING EMAILS

A load of strangers rifled through Sarah Palin's old emails but found nothing of any real interest.The Guardian, the New York Times and the Washington Post all asked their readers to help them plough through the 24,000 pages of emails released on Friday by the state of Alaska.Palin was governor there for 21 months – from 2006 until she was picked as John McCain's presidential running mate – but if anything interesting happened during her tenure, it must have been discussed in the 2,300 pages of emails that the authorities wouldn't let the media look at.As a result, the writers that hate Sarah Palin because she's an idiot have been forced to resort to low-level troll tactics like decrying spelling mistakes and mocking her for not writing her own speeches.Much to the pinko chagrin, nothing has come to light yet that would even mildly hinder any shot Palin might like to take at the presidency in next year's election.That said, we guess this will be seen as an important moment when the historians look back at 2011 and the advent of privacy 2.0.A COUNTRY HAS BEEN HACKING INTO THE WORLD'S PIGGY BANK
