Elon Musk installs illegal server to seize all federal workers’ data - eviltoast

Summary

Elon Musk allegedly installed an unauthorized server at the Office of Personnel Management (OPM), gaining access to sensitive federal employee data, including Social Security numbers, home addresses, and medical histories.

Young, inexperienced staffers are reportedly using this access to target positions for removal, particularly DEI offices.

Security concerns have been raised, with fears of hacking and HIPAA violations.

Senior officials have been locked out of key systems, limiting oversight of DOGE’s actions, which could significantly impact the federal workforce.

      I voted for her out of attempted harm reduction, and I agree, she probably is.

      Wealthy neoliberals care as much about their fellow citizens as wealthy fascists, as they both have the same God they worship 💰

      One appeals to pretending to care about people’s well-being while taking bribes to hurt them, the other appeals to pretending to care about idiot bigot’s blood lust while taking bribes to hurt them.

        Yeah you’re probably not far off. Similarly, I held my nose and voted for her as well. She was obviously the better choice, if only because her legacy was tied to a platform that at least on paper was significantly better than the alternative (e.g., climate change).

        Alas I raise Hillary because of the double-standards of her buttery males versus this which is infinitely worse — yet, naturally, not a peep from conservative circles.

        Because we know they’re hypocrites and ends justify means to them.

          Perhaps if we had a candidate we didn’t have to hold our nose over, this all could have been avoided.

            Honestly, right-wing media domination is so strong that we could resurrect George Washington, merge his DNA with Reagan’s corpse, then conjoin that with Trump’s head and call him GigaTrump and Republicans wouldn’t vote for him because of the (D).

              It’s not really republicans that we need to attract. It’s all the people the DNC abandoned in pursuit of the corporate dollar.
