The article touches on the most amusing part:

  Then again, the accounting firm could just stick with the "You have no 
  privacy. Get over it" line.

This was said and widely discussed (laughed about) back in Jan of 1999 by

bring this incident up when talking about security. I sure hope someone in 
the audience shouted out his infamous quote.
