The polish exchange Bitomat and have a look at mybitcoin.com

Bitomat lost their wallet because of how the Amazon ECC works.

Mybitcoin probably wasn't hacked.  As it stands, I believe the current guess is that the service was a scam from the start with the owner selling off bitcoins as they came in.

Neither one was hacked, and two sites don't mean "every site" even if both had been hacked.

Forget the word hack, that isn't the main point, the main point is that the owners try to steal the coins and funds and blame it on ridiculous things.

Bitomat was due to pure, unadulterated incompetence, so they claim, and not hacking but there's no real proof.

MyBitcoin... I'm still out on the fence if it was truly hacked too.  It could be a cover story but who knows...

Please define "every site".  It's only been a small number.

Important sites. True not all sites, and not all important sites. But in general, it seems to me that if you want to steal the funds, you just say that phrase and everyone accepts it, that's ridiculous.

Please definite "Important sites".  Besides Mt. Gox I don't know of any "hacking".

This is getting were ridiculous. Every site is getting hacked and the owners don't understand how it could happen, they have nothing to do with it. Right, who believes that. Not me.
