The official report was put out by Consumer Financial Protection Bureau, and they should know, otherwise they wouldn't have made a false statement putting their brand at risk while eliminating risk for the consumer: http://files.consumerfinance.gov/f/201408_cfpb_consumer-advisory_virtual-currencies.pdf

Even if you use best practices, anything that connects to the Internet—even big companies—can be hacked.

Woah really? Maaan that's messed up!!! Even if I'm behind a firewall-thing? Also, I'm using this via WiFi, doesn't that make it safer? I mean there's no direct connection, but only air between my computer and the antenna-thing!
