Software development (websites are just software after all) is a minefield of inexperienced idiots. There's a reason why the best charge hundreds of dollars an hour.. maybe the government will realise this soon.

No SSL cert, what a joke. Doesn't give you much confidence that the site couldn't be hacked through standard attacks.

I for one welcome big stories being made out of such things. They help get the public educated about what to look for when doing transactions on the interwebs...
