    Berulis alleged in the affidavit that there attempted logins to NLRB systems from an IP address in Russia in the days after DOGE accessed the systems. He told Reuters Tuesday that the attempted logins apparently included correct username and password combinations but were rejected by location-related conditional access policies.

    There’s a VPN for that (or maybe the systems don’t allow it?)

      Which… would on further notice say… we only know about failures… so yeah any agents in appropriate locations or VPNs using correct credentials would be effectively undetectable.

      A department of random college kids with unfettered and unmonitored access, who have Marshals to force access to ANYWHERE THEY PLEASE, seems ripe for recruiting by an intelligence agency.

      Exactly. They are by definition unauthorized government contractors accessing sensitive data. Neither executive order nor the words of dictator Donnie can authorize them.

      There are no oversight bodies, and the collection, storage, and use of this data is an infosec disaster that they hope is outshined by the infosec disasters their actions have enabled.
