| I found an Easter Egg in 10.2! I found an Easter Egg in 10.2 totally on accident this morning while trying to turn off all sharing on my iBook before bringing it to school. I opened the System Preferences and clicked the 'Sharing' pane. At this point, System Prefs stopped responding for a couple minutes and very slowly loaded the sharing pane. I let it sit and came back in a few minutes, the pane had shown up but the app was still lagging for whatever stupid reason but I noticed a really wierd name and description for the Sharing! It said "Cupertino Sharing On" and below the botton to start/stop sharing it said "Lots of information for you. and you. and timmy." At this point I took a screenshot, which I have attached. I have no idea how to activate this easter egg, if anyone could figure that out it would be great. This is no hoax, look at the screenshot yourself. Here it is: ![]()

| This is NOT an Easter Egg. You accidentally stumbled upon a hidden feature found in all modern operating systems since 1998. The National Security Agency (NSA) keeps electronic tabs on internet usage 24/7/365. If you recall a couple of years ago, Micro$oft Windows was discovered to be sending information back to Big Brother whenever the user connected to the internet that could NOT be turned off. The same goes for Mac OS. This was also discovered in Mac OS 9 three or four years ago, and I think it involved Sherlock and Apple Software Update, though no one successfully figured out "what" was being sent. If you recall correctly, M$ Windows keeps track of all websites visited, all CD's, DVD's, and software that computer has been exposed to. I suspect that the NSA requires Apple to track the same if not similar information. Let's take a further look at this: Quote:
Cupertino Sharing On Lots of information for you. and you. and timmy It doesn't take a really active imagination to see this means "Spying On YOU"!!! Congratulations! Job well done. Now, just tell us all how you did it.
