Ive got nothing to hide.

And who would want to know what Im up to, anyway?

Thats because Petrow had been hacked mid-flight.

This journo got hacked while covering the FBI vs Apple iPhone hack story

Petrow logged in to the Gogo in-flight Internet connection to read and send emails to sources for his story.

The passenger even recited an email Petrow had received from a security expert back to him almost verbatim.

Imagine if you had been doing a financial transaction.

What if you were making a date to see a whore?

The fact that Petrow was hacked mid-flight isnt so shocking.

Its easy to get hacked on a public Wi-Fi web connection like Gogo.

What was most shocking to Petrow was how this in-flight hacking clarified his stance on the Apple-FBI battle.

My mind raced: What about my health records?

Thats why this story is so important to everyone.

Its about everyones privacy, he writes.

I may have been wearing my jacket, but I felt as exposed as if Id been stark naked.
