RealClimate: The CRU hack

The CRU hack
Filed under: Climate Science— group @ 20 November 2009
As many of you will be aware, a large number of emails from the Climate Research Unit (CRU) at the University of East Anglia webmail server were hacked recently (Despite some confusion generated by Anthony Watts, this has absolutely nothing to do with the Hadley Centre which is a completely separate institution). As people are also no doubt aware the breaking into of computers and releasing private information is illegal, and regardless of how they were obtained, posting private correspondence without permission is unethical. We therefore aren’t going to post any of the emails here. We were made aware of the existence of this archive last Tuesday morning when the hackers attempted to upload it to RealClimate, and we notified CRU of their possible security breach later that day.

Since the e-mails were out of context, and possibly fakes, no reason to comment.

However, the Hadley group are not the only people that are studying the problem, NASA, NOAA, and RSS figures are close to those of Hadley.

So you have an international conspiracy, or just more nonsense.

what a credulous bumpkin you are.

Real Climate is to AGW what the Daily Kos is to politics.
