[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Seems like some are concerned about the fact only 40% of Virginians have Real ID. I don’t see why this is a problem except for people who don’t have a passport or who want to fly. What is the issue?[/quote]

It's an issue because Real ID requires a lot more documentation about who you are and where you live. The government wants that information.[/quote]

I hate to break it to you, but the government has all that information, and thanks to DOGE it looks like Russia has all your information too.

NPR's cybersecurity correspondent Jenna McLaughlin recently broke a story about a whistleblower inside the federal government who says DOGE representatives appear to have taken sensitive data, then covered their tracks. Daniel Berulis works for the National Labor Relations Board and he has shared evidence that DOGE engineers disabled security protocols, exported reams of sensitive data and used a "hacker's toolkit" to hide their activities. And he thinks his agency is not alone.[/quote]
