submission statement: given that the US is the primary subject of discussion here, I figure a major data breach in the FBI by ‘China-linked hackers’ is post-worthy.
‘According to Politico, the system contained information from pen register and trap and trace devices, which are used to monitor incoming and outgoing calls from a phone, as well as personally identifiable information related to subjects of FBI investigations.’
Not sure just how significant this is, I’m not an expert in these things.

It’s impossible to know, but I wonder if this wouldn’t have happened if so many FBI employees weren’t fired or driven to quit.
This applies to pretty much all agencies – I’m wondering when the cracks will really start to appear when you purge so many federal employees.
