Delta hacked my email, says passenger rights chief

[Juha-Matti Laurio <juha-matti.laurio () netti fi>]

"An airline passenger rights advocate is accusing Delta Air Lines of hacking into her computer and e-mail accounts
to sabotage her organization's attempts to mandate basic services during flight delays.

Kate Hanni, a resident of California, is the founder of the Coalition for an Airline Passengers Bill of Rights,
an organization lobbying for federal laws that require airlines to provide bathroom access, clean air,
and access to medical treatment when passengers are held up for hours on the tarmac."

And later:
"Hanni said her PC and America Online email account were both accessed illegally this summer, with AOL confirming the 
email breach.
Some of her data was copied to an unknown location, and other files were corrupted and rendered useless."
