MITRE’s CVE program may shut down as DHS funding expires, threatening global cybersecurity coordination and exposing critical gaps in vulnerability tracking.

This is an utter failure of oversight in governance. And likely a misappropriation of government funds.

What a colossally shortsighted decision.

    Hey- all of you who have spent decades talking about how you’re smarter than the ignorant conservatives?

    If you can’t outsmart them, what was the fuckin’ point?

      Conservatives kind of prove that in a lot of ways, power really is the only thing that matters. Smarts mean nothing if you can’t leverage them and use the power you have when you have it. They pursue power for powers’ sake and then use it, even if they do it hamfistedly.
