Summary
The appointment of former Tesla engineer Thomas Shedd as head of the Technology Transformation Services (TTS) has disrupted the agency responsible for U.S. government IT infrastructure.
TTS employees report being summoned to sudden meetings with unidentified individuals lacking government credentials, raising concerns over security and oversight.
Shedd, aligned with Musk’s government efficiency initiatives, emphasizes cost-cutting and tech adoption.
Workers fear the changes could expose sensitive data or compromise government operations, while confusion grows over the agency’s direction under new leadership.
I wonder how difficult it would be for a bad actor to walk right into a government office with bogus credentials to “inspect” things. All this chaos is bad for national security.
well we know from L Ron Hubbard, it’s very fucking easy
The real question is how difficult would it be for a bad actor with a fake github to charm an appointee and be put into a job like this.
There’s a non-zero chance North Korea’s tech firm espionage group is trying exactly this, because these fools don’t want to wait for pesky things like security clearances.
TTS employees report being summoned to sudden meetings with unidentified individuals lacking government credentials, raising concerns over security and oversight.
Uh, don’t have that meeting then? This work has to at least touch on controlled unclassified information, the rules don’t go away just because your new boss doesn’t know them. Also, this is exactly the sort of thing people would do to test that the rules were being followed. Work to rule.
This sentence is a bit vague, even with the comma:
Are the unidentified indivifuals raising security concerns, or are the employees raising these concerns in the wake of the individuals?
I’m pretty sure the point is to get sensitive information and weaken government IT infrastructure.
That’s the whole modus operandi of these traitorous [unable to find strong enough words to describe them].
Nazis. I think Nazis is an accurate description.
This is going to be great. I’m sure that musks little lackeys will definitely make things run smoothly and more efficiently and not get in the way of everything and bring our already lacking IT and cybersecurity to its knees with dumb bs and muskies pet projects, right?
Just like Twitter
X-Force, Americas enhanced non-diverse super soldiers.
Or.
Elons suckup staff and AI have real military code privileges, and staff do what they say.
🎶 One of these things is not as plausible as the… 🎶 fucking lol yes they’re both completely plausible.
I believe they’re called the X-ticles.
