Two members of Elon Musk’s DOGE have been given accounts on classified networks that hold highly guarded details about America’s nuclear weapons, two independent sources tell NPR.
Luke Farritor, a 23-year-old former SpaceX intern, and Adam Ramada, a Miami-based venture capitalist, have had accounts on the computer systems for at least two weeks, according to the sources who also have access to the networks.
Prior to their work at DOGE, neither Farritor nor Ramada appear to have had experience with either nuclear weapons or handling classified information.
The accounts were exposed by design
Yeah, they were exposed so quickly that the only explanation is that it was done on purpose. Russia literally had access less than 15 minutes after the accounts were created. That’s not enough time for a brute force attack, unless the password was literally “password”. And even then, Russia would need to know the usernames in order to begin the brute force attack.
There was no hack. There was no leak. The secrets were sold and handed over voluntarily and this will continue for the foreseeable future.
… There are a lot of domain specific, contextually distinct ways one could interperet what you just said.
Could you be more precise?
I can think of at least two, totally different, practically opposite in meaning, ways of interpreting your comment, off the top of my head.
