"In case you missed it, a hacker group called AntiSec announced Tuesday it had grabbed the identifying numbers of 12 million iPhones and iPads \u2014 and to prove it, released a million of those IDs to the public. \nNow it seems the hackers may have nabbed the most high-profile prize of all \u2014 the unique string of code used to identify President Obama's iPad. (Call it the First Tablet.)\nThe suspected Obama ID, first spotted by the blog RazorianFly, has not been confirmed by the White House. But it would make sense, since the hack allegedly came from a government laptop \u2014 specifically that of FBI Special Agent Christopher K. Stangl, a supervisor in the FBI\u2019s Regional Cyber Action Team.\n\nSEE ALSO: How to Check If Your Apple Device ID was Compromised\nThe ID in question, listed with the President's name on the anonymous data-dump website Paste HTML, is for an iOS device called \"hobamain.\" That certainly sounds like a plausible name \u2014 \"Obama\" mashed up with \"main,\" and beginning with the President's middle initial. \nObama is a big Apple fan, regularly pictured with his Macbook laptop \u2014 which he used last week to do a Q&amp;A on Reddit \u2014 and he received an early model of the original iPad from Steve Jobs in 2010.\nWhy a local FBI agent would have the President's iPad UDID \u2014 let alone that of 12 million other Apple users \u2014 isn't yet known. But it likely has something to do with the National Cyber Forensics and Training Alliance (NCFTA), a nonprofit that allows large companies and government agencies to share cybersecurity information, and collaborates closely with the local FBI office.\nImage courtesy of the White House, Pete Souza"^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
