There isn't much of a bandwagon, more of a flogging of the dead horse that was once pulling that wagon.
He's a game designer, not a security expert. Sure, he made a few mistakes, but that's not his area of expertise - he made no more mistakes than the average computer user. He works on games, not security. It's like expecting a detective to secretly be a rambo with a cupboard full of M4's.
The only reason it's so significant is because he and his company are significant and in the spotlight, and thus more idiots with an exploit and a keylogger are going to be aiming themselves at Valve. With that said, the only thing I find disturbing is that they've neglected to hire a competent internet security guy, or even one at all.
I'm not going to say to much because he is behing HL2, but I guess that he is one of those people who set their passwords as their names. <!--emo&;)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/wink-fix.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='wink-fix.gif' /><!--endemo-->
1. How do you know his password was gaben, or user, or password, or whatever? 2. I don't see any of you making games that stay popular for 7+ years. 3. Everyone makes mistakes. Just sit patiently and wait for HL2.

Can you think of one man on earth who is going to be more hacked and intruded upon than Gabe Newell? Sure, I bet the government gets lots of hack attempts, but they can hire the best in the industry to keep their stuff safe. Valve is just a software company trying to make a game, a game that is one of the most highly anticipated of all time. Their fans are all computer nerds, it's inevitable that some of them end up hackers and just get impatient and do something like this.
