    This is in NV, but what I don’t know is what jurisdiction applies. Involved might be federal, state, or county agents. The Ranger truck might suggest that it was federal, but the highway would have been state managed.

    Edit: Read elsewhere that it was a Tribal Ranger truck, so yet another jurisdiction. Excessive response and the conduct is under review.



  • Arguably it is a strength. Unless a user has used the same username and password for different instances, their credentials on one instance are shielded from exploit over the whole network. The potential risk can only really be determined by how security was breeched. If it was social engineering, then there isn’t any other direct concern. If it was a vulnerability in software, then the same attack could be played out on other instances, but that’s not any different than other systems like a Linux kennel exploit.
