    It’s unsurprising considering that just in September Elon Musk in an ego trip decided to ignore security and just started unplugging server cables at random, which caused damages lasting even today.

    (Context: a server needed to be moved with incredibly careful procedures. Elmo thought he knew better and decided to ignore all the protocols that are meant to stop damage)

        Yeah lmao. Personally I only found out when I was told about it by a friend who happens to work on exactly these kind of things. I’m surprised this isn’t covered more by the news.

        Did you know Elmo also at first refused to secure the servers (as in the physical boxes) meaning anyone could easily steal them and when the INTENSE danger of theft and data leaks was pointed out to him he threw a tantrum before putting a fucking 5 dollar padlock on the door that held the disconnected servers at the time?

        As in the kind of padlock that is notorious for being bog easy to pick and sometimes opens just by bashing it. THAT kind of fucking padlock.

          This reminds me of Trump just throwing a bunch of classified nuclear weapons documents in some unlocked storage closet at marlago.

      Yea it’s a fuckin wild story. The man hired a bunch of guys off the street to pack them up into the trailers as he crawled u see the floors to start unplugging shit. It cause havoc to a bunch of software that specifically called to the data center that the Lego master so skillfully dismantled in the dead of night and has had knock on effects since that moment. In addition, a ton of highly sensitive data was on those servers that was supposed to have significant security measures taken to protect, which the man directly ignored saying that a padlock on the trailer was enough.

        How he wasn’t sued by the data center and every company that had servers in there is shocking to me. Also how is it not some form of crime to hand millions of peoples personal data to some guys off the street?
