    He probably just didn’t pay a bill and thinks that’s an attack

      That would be so incredible funny :D

      Imagine not paying for your datacenter and the hoster putting something personal (rightfully so in this case) on your homepage.

    I honestly would love it so much if Anonymous saved the world from this shit. That’s like teen dystopian drama level.

      Well anyone can be anonymous it’s about the idea not some kind of elite hermetic group, it’s all of us and only we (the people) can save ourselves from the authoritarians

          So what I meant is that no one else will do this for you, you are anonymous. We must act in ways we are able

    Historically Tesla’s security is as bad as DOGE’s. They got hacked a while back because they had an unsecured kubernetes control plane exposed to the internet. Apparently being owned by a [edit: seagull managing] drug addict isn’t good for opsec.

    EDIT: I incorrectly used a medical term to describe Elon’s management style. Sorry everyone.

      Hey @anachronist@midwest.social, I realize you’re not trying to be hurtful to anyone in this comment (except maybe Musk, but honestly fuck that guy) but including a common condition that many folks live with in a list of things that make Musk a bad manager likely is hurtful to those people, even if that’s not your intention. If Elon does have ADHD, that’s clearly not the problem since I suspect we all know tons of people with ADHD who are a) great at their jobs and b) not trying to dismantle the United States. In the future, please try to “Be(e) Nice”.

        Yeah for sure. And regardless, I know some great security engineers who are ADHD.

      Move fast and break things tends to create broken systems.
