Apparently not, because his blog had "any level of popularity" long before it was hacked. Since this is the first I've ever heard of a Posterous hack, clearly it's not true that all decent sized blogs are being hacked constantly.

On the surface, what you say makes sense, but the real life data doesn't back it up.

Way to totally put up a strawman argument. I did not argue that all popular blogs are ALWAYS being hacked constantly - I just said that it's that much bigger of a prize and people are going to give it a shot, and if the blog system is this easy to hack, you're going to have to regularly (perhaps I should have used regularly instead of constantly, given that a lot of people on this board, like you I suspect, have a bad habit of taking things too literally) deal with hacks.
