What's critical about the whistle blower report at the National Labor Relations Board, is that this is absolutely a data breach that seems to have stolen their most private data. BUT this is also wide spread now across any agency that DOGE has touched.

They reported this becoming an issue a nuclear stock pile sites, that they are now on the public internet via starlink & data is being exfilled.

I am happy to go for #easterhegg to Hamburg again - but will arrive these time later on Saturday.
Find me in the #hardware #hacking area near the everlasting #solder session by @marove and blinkyparts. There I am up for geeky talks and more, plus you can test and play some noisio #instruments and #prototypes.
If you like, you can directly grab a #kit and solder your own #synth or #noise tool on the side.

"Most modern cars have some kind of internet connection, but Tesla goes much further. By design, its cars receive "over-the-air" updates, including updates that are adverse to drivers' interests. For example, if you stop paying the monthly subscription fee that entitles you to use your battery's whole charge, Tesla will send a wireless internet command to your car to restrict your driving to only half of your battery's charge.

This means that your Tesla is designed to follow instructions that you don't want it to follow, and, by design, those instructions can fundamentally alter your car's operating characteristics. For example, if you miss a payment on your Tesla, it can lock its doors and immobilize itself, then, when the repo man arrives, it will honk its horn, flash its lights, back out of its parking spot, and unlock itself so that it can be driven away:
(...)
Some of the ways that your Tesla can be wirelessly downgraded (like disabling your battery) are disclosed at the time of purchase. Others (like locking you out and summoning a repo man) are secret. But whether disclosed or secret, both kinds of downgrade depend on the genuinely bizarre idea that a computer that you own, that is in your possession, can be relied upon to follow orders from the internet even when you don't want it to. This is weird enough when we're talking about a set-top box that won't let you record a TV show – but when we're talking about a computer that you put your body into and race down the road at 80mph inside of, it's frankly terrifying."
