DOGE Exposes Once-Secret Government Networks, Making Cyber-Espionage Easier Than

This post should NOT be flagged. Plenty of substantial research in this article and it is disturbing. There is a concerted effort to silence anything that sounds like criticism.

Now that we're talking about doge, could anyone from us tell me if doge.gov/join has a cloud flare chaptcha when interacting with the form from the USA? I can only visit it via VPN and I have a chaptcha before the submit button. No, I don't wanna join doge, it's for... Educational purposes

I read this article and it is alarming, but what&#x27;s the DOGE connection to once-private systems showing up on the public internet? That doesn&#x27;t seem to be explained outside of the correlation with the Treasury system access.<p>Also, the authors of this SubStack appear to be anonymous?

&quot;Alarmingly, a Department of Energy server allowed anonymous login with write access, raising the risk of hackers uploading malicious code or installing backdoors for persistent network access.&quot;<p>I sincerely hope that&#x27;s a honeypot

The world is laughing at us, when they&#x27;re not busy booing us. Hopefully we&#x27;ve all learned a valuable lesson here.

&gt; Beginning on January 8, 2025, a surge of U.S. government infrastructure began appearing on what’s known as “the search engine of Internet-connected devices,” Shodan.io.<p>Seeing as how Trump was inaugurated on Jan 20th, it&#x27;s hard to come to the conclusion that this is something that DOGE is responsible for.

How do we know this is a real researcher and not a disgruntled (former) US government employee? It feels extremely politically-motivated, anyway.
