As long as it's a work computer, what does it matter if it's his current computer or not? Remember that we're talking about an infostealer, it got his credentials and "that's it" (that's gravely serious).
- roenxi 2y agoWouldn't the assumption be that some percentage of government workers have infostealers on their computers? The track record of these people is not good, pretty much since we've had the internet there have been a steady stream of minor-to-moderate scandals where information gets to places that it shouldn't be. This might just be selection bias because there is a large crowd of angry people looking for things to fling at DOGE.
- dakr 2y agoIf there's bias, I think it comes from people being concerned that there are people coming into various govt. offices, demanding and receiving write/read, non-logging accounts on systems containing sensitive information. The access DOGE staffers are being granted absolutely warrants extra scrutiny of their conduct and security practices.
