Swiss leaks

These past few years as hackers gained more attention with their destructive activities, I suggested that they do something worthwhile like looking into secret Swiss Bank accounts. Well Holy Crow, today in the news there is a story called, “Swiss Leaks”, and it offers an insight into some of these accounts. celebrities. uA 37-year-old computer security specialist named Hervé Falciani stole the huge cache of data in 2007 and gave it to the French government. It's now being used to go after tax cheats all over the world. 60 Minutes, working with a group called the International Consortium of Investigative Journalists, obtained the leaked files. They show the bank did business with a collection of international outlaws: tax dodgers, arms dealers and drug smugglers -- offering a rare glimpse into the highly secretive world of Swiss banking. I wonder why it has taken so many years for this information to come out and will the names of these people be released to the general public?
