Elon Musk’s DOGE website has been defaced because anyone can edit it
Such security, much open.
You're viewing a single thread.
One month, it's not even been one month yet. Sigh...
These are the people connecting unknown servers to national databases and directly modifying production systems that control.. everything (funding).
This could also very easily be a honey pot 🙄 I hope y'all aren't dumb enough to be hacking gov-adjacent databases without proper opsec
Is it hacking tho? I mean it's open
Yes, it’s commonly prosecuted in both USA and CAN.
In USA: Computer Fraud and Abuse Act ("CFAA") site:justice.gov
Essentially, directly accessing and modifying any system you don’t have authority over meets the bar for legal action.
They can and will track this, being hands off or proper opsec is the only way to ensure safety.
They can and will track this
Normally, 100%. The US government has strict opsec and cyber security procedures, so even if someone gets in a neglected door they better have covered their tracks well
But these are a bunch of complete newbies with no oversight. They're not doing even the most basic compliance... They're completely green, they don't know what they don't know yet. The oldest of them is a new grad, one is a high school grad. They're also adversarial to the people who do the actual cyber security
That being said, I wouldn't take chances
I’m of the “no risk to small” mind set as well and I’d wager when they try to investigate, the people they must ask, will simply delay answering.
Perhaps not because of ideology either, I imagine the total increase in spillover work from sudden attack surface exposure must look wildly Sisyphean right now.
Bro what makes you think titler and the lost boys are computer literate?
Never believe that anti-Semites are completely unaware of the absurdity of their replies. They know that their remarks are frivolous, open to challenge. But they are amusing themselves, for it is their adversary who is obliged to use words responsibly, since he believes in words. The anti-Semites have the right to play. They even like to play with discourse for, by giving ridiculous reasons, they discredit the seriousness of their interlocutors. They delight in acting in bad faith, since they seek not to persuade by sound argument but to intimidate and disconcert. If you press them too closely, they will abruptly fall silent, loftily indicating by some phrase that the time for argument is past.
Jean-Paul Sartre
I apologize, but what does this have to do with the level of computer literacy of titler (elon) and his gang of young kids?
No apology necessary, it seems you consider them a joke, I don’t.
The circumstances draw parallels to Sartre’s time.
Cheers, friend.
I consider them a threat due to their computer illiteracy and zeal for getting into government departments. Maybe you didn't understand what I was putting down here.
Just in case you don't understand what I meant, see their most recent leak of classified info or elons ignorance of SQL leading to claims of duplicate data in government databases.
Maybe you are looking at the more complicated picture with Sartre and assuming stuff about folks instead of looking at the simpler picture that is right in front of you.
Fair enough, to me the text read was unclear, but you and I are aligned in sentiment.
The CFAA isn't computer literate either. It was made in like 1985 and the language used references express permission for dialing into computers in pre-dialup days. Courts could interpret it as everyone needing a snail mailed letter from google before you type google dot com into a browser, if the judge wanted to be that big of an asshole. Its ancient, but it is still used to throw the book at anyone using a keyboard in a way the government doesn't like.
Essentially, directly accessing and modifying any system you don’t have authority over meets the bar for legal action.
So exactly the doge traitors are doing...
Sure, with the notable exception that they (the exec branch) are also the stakeholders and enforcers of that law.
It’s perfectly legal for them to simply ignore any activity going on, or executive order investigations shut down if any check or balance gets in the way.
And as a tertiary overlap in either case, use cronies to reinforce bad policy to further objectives.
Ha ha, oh wow. Honey pot? They are threatening tariffs with our allies. All our information is going bye bye.
Yeeaaah... your information isn't going to be what they lock up for what is literally nothing more than a silly joke.
Don't play stupid games with an authoritarian regime.
You hacked a government system from your home connection?
It's universally stupid, man! https://youtu.be/ADfL9g3X-DA
