This hit every US news service. How is it so low in points?
"breach could potentially affect every federal agency, officials said"
I love HN's ability to filter news that matters to dev/tech-professionals, but when stuff like this pops up it should be top 10, for at _least_ a few hours. This is some serious shit. Who here does business with government agencies? Most of you have IRS Tax/Employer IDs... with the rate that this is "expanding" what is to say that it wasn't just HR records, but more. Your e-filed IRS return could be sitting with folks outside of the IRS...
No intention to fear monger but think of the statement "breach could potentially affect every federal agency" - every business in the US does something, with sensitive data, with an agency :/
