When I think of Elon Musk hacking into hundreds of millions of tax files and Social Security records I am reminded of the case of Aaron Swartz. He face five years in prison because he hacked into M.I.T's computer system.

"Think of the fed. govt. as a car. You might have thought the election was like getting [it] serviced. Instead, ...the mechanics...tell you they have taken the parts of your car that work & sold them & kept the money. And that this was the most efficient thing to do. And that you should thank them."
Please, everyone, drop what you’re doing and read this:

There is zero reporting about what’s going on in right wing media. None. Please talk to family and friends AND go to right wing media to post there about what Trump and Musk are doing, because the right is in the middle of a media blackout and they will not know what’s happening unless we tell them.
