I just read this article about an IRS worker snooping around celebrity tax records. I must admit that it would be tempting to want to know what the celebrities spend their money on *and* claim deductions for. But, this is a classic example of when not having proper access controls can get people in trouble. I am not sure if this person would be doing time if such controls were in place (as the people that want to get into trouble find ways to do just that) but it just might have prevented the personal records of celebrities getting into the wrong hands. But wait a minute, isn't there a saying in Hollywood that "there is no such thing as bad publicity"?
