I think you are misunderestimating the issue: Isn't it obvious that
the world government (I didn't know there was more than one) will use
the same usernames and passwords to sign up for the news service that
they use to activate their nucular weapons? Don't come crying to
n3td3v if some l33t hax0r drops a nuke on you!

Just kidding. Honest.
