I honestly don't care. Any govt agency in the g50 could get the same data on defence workers at other rival governments. They got whole govt office buildings that agregate this data in Beijing or Washington or Moscow. The megacorporations already had the data too.

And there is no particular incentive to track normal people, because most people are of no value to govts, hackers, etc.

Now if I were a c-suite exec at United healthcare, id be a little shook. :wow:

Expect more of this. These tech companies are firing thousands of people who have the knowledge to break into security systems and write their own bots and AI models to do this shyt. They have time and anger.

Don't be surprised if someone sends a drone full of explosives to a CEO workshop or breaks into Musk's Tesla and crashes it into the water. Not only will I not be surprised, I'll be mad at anyone who is dumb enough to think a neonazi that angered millions of people around the world didn't have that coming.

If the breached software is open source, there goes your weak link. Yea yea closed source get hacked too. But they damn sure ain’t providing would-be hackers the blueprint to their source code ecosystem.

With open source hackers know exactly where to penetrate. Closed source usually get hacked when an unscrupulous contractor leaves or finishes a project which, during his employment with the company, allowed him to be familiar with the environment. And if you’re a random hacker without that background, you just being a dumbass begging to get caught while you’re feeling your way through.

There are two sides to this argument. I’m curious to see in which camp the coli 6certs nikkas and wiggas (yes I said it :birdman: ) will lump themselves in.
