Can everything be hacked?

Yes it can. Here's why, as new technologies develop so do ways to hack. While large companies such as Google, and Yahoo are great about hiring ethical hackers to find weak points in security nothing and I mean NOTHING is fool proof! Now as far as Google its self, well that's more secure than an account! You have to figure in the Human factor. Let's go over this, the human factor is the user/account holder/YOU, this tends to be the biggest weak point in account security. Despite the fact that Google may be secure your account will NEVER be AS secure because of the aforementioned human factor. When it comes to the user, they tend to make mistakes such as easy passwords, downloading key loggers, an all around poor online practices. Even though Google can do a whole bunch for THEIR security, they can't ensure YOU do your part to protect your own account, and THIS is the human factor! The user gets an account, goes to a bad site, and poof you get malware and lose your account...Google has NO control over this! About the ONLY thing that could be done is limiting access by IP, but IPs can be spoofed to look like any desired IP, they can change upon router resets, and you would only be able to access them through that one specific IP, so it is not a desirable method for security. The sad part is while Google, Yahoo, Youtube, and Facebook spend thousands and even millions in preventative measures, they can't take out the weakest point in the security....the USER!
