Uhhh, virtually everything is still left? Those regular humdrum protective policies large organizations adopt after they keep getting burned for not having them?
For example, security clearances, and background checks, which aren't so much about morality as to ensure the person has no secrets an enemy can they blackmail them with.
Or what about financial disclosures for conflicts of interest? Then a different person can be tasked with certain projects to avoid unnecessary temptation to peak, leak, or tweak.
- palmfacehn 2y agoAre we sure that no background checks have been performed? Has anyone claimed that no security clearance has been granted?
- Terr_ 2y agoYes, the people who tried to obey the laws passed by Congress were "placed on leave" in retaliation. > Musk’s DOGE crew lacked high-enough security clearance to access that information, so the two USAID security officials — John Vorhees and deputy Brian McGill — were legally obligated to deny access. https://fortune.com/2025/02/02/elon-musk-doge-usaid-classified-info-security-chiefs-leave/ https://fortune.com/2025/02/02/elon-musk-doge-usaid-classifi...
