WTF, fElonia! I was enjoying such a great buzz post- Hands Off Day! Listen, if there are any hackers who can hack these butt heads back, I’d be much obliged to see their efforts torpedoed. I’d owe you one.

I’m sure that’s a brilliant idea- Geezuz!

Hahaha. HAHAHA. As someone who has been in tech a LONG time and seen many, many different types of tech, I wish them good luck making one API to fit them all. That someone thinks that this is remotely possible is laughable at best.

A garbage AI created API full of bugs and security holes will be a disaster for all the implemented institutions. This should be stopped. It's probably sent over HTTP in plain text.

Makes Cambridge Analytica look like child’s play

worked at 4 startups, none of this is happening without increasing the debt exponentially leading to a catastrophic launch of a product that creates more tech debt. And there’s no other business to sell off to - because it’s the government. Tech culture is a grift. only the top walk away unscathed.

Chesterton's Fence again. The data bases are separate to preserve security and privacy, not just to annoy scriptkiddies

🤬🤬🤬

Great. A Palantir sponsored IRS hackathon. Anyone in any oversight role familiar with the way hackathons work? Anyone in oversight at all? Billions have been spent trying to prevent these hackers and trolls from accessing these sensitive systems. Did we just give up? This is sheer insanity.

What could possibly go wrong?

That's the point.

Complete violation of citizens data. SCOTUS is responsible for EVERYTHING this criminal administration does.

Someone please arrest this non-elected, non-citizen NOW

Just in time for tax day!

I am all for a democratic technological advancements. But when it’s done with disregard for democracy, it’s hard to trust it’s for the good of the people and of the people. It’s much easier to think “absolute power corrupts absolutely!”

Theft and sabotage. That is all the GOP stands for anymore.

mucking around with a national data based coded in a language that is 60 years old and incomprehensible to the idiot tech bros. what can do wrong?

While they're at it, why not get hold of Trump's returns and publish them?

@murray.senate.gov @cantwell.senate.gov @schiff.senate.gov @whitehouse.senate.gov @booker.senate.gov @chrismurphyct.bsky.social @klobuchar.senate.gov @ossoff.bsky.social this cannot be allowed to happen. Do something to stop this!Please!!!

🤣🤣🤣

And obviously an App. Capable to change votes in all States! But they won’t mention that!! Where are the lawyers? Judges?

It can and will be used against you. The Political Donations you wrote off, in theory, identifies you as someone to be targetted during elections... So many ways they can misuse that data ... one tiny fudge on a claim, and you could be charged with tax evasion. This is a war on US privacy rights.

They are making my identity fraud case against them so much easier. Could you maybe ask them all to wear black shirts with the word “CRIMINAL” on it & snap a quick pic for me?

Russia is winning without firing a shot. The GOP is complicit! Treason!

Same week as another massive data breach was reported at Twitter. “200 Million X User Records Released — 2.8 Billion Twitter IDs Leaked”

Is he just doing whatever he wants without direction? Like no one is trying to stop this?

Sometimes I shove better into a sock and throw it at elmo

The Peter Thiel Palantir, the same guy who bought that Senate seat for JD Vance who is our current VP? Say it ain't so. There's a REASON those agencies were NOT connected. To ensure taxpayer data PRIVACY. Guess we don't need that any longer?

Yeah, I just love EL0N and Peter Theil having access to my private information and being able to access whatever they want and whenever they want. These MOFOs need to go to jail immediately.

This is how you know these people don’t pay taxes - probably don’t realize it’s right before the filing deadline.

Only if the "government sponsor" is not the same as the government that's getting hacked.

Prediction: This will end with Russia having all of our IRS data, the administration saying the libs and mainstream media are overreacting, and MAGA on X saying, “well actually, it’s good the Russians have our data”.

yes.

Congress has the power to stop it but they refuse

@democracyforward.org

I feel like I'm in a Netflix show.

Between this and Trump weakening our cyber strength, this feels like a massive hack waiting to happen and then a project that is never finished and dumped on the next guy

Why? It's none of his buisness

We should make it very clear, if you ever had an @doge.gov email address, you will not be forgotten, you will not be forgiven, you will never work in this country again for long, we will find you, whether it’s 10 years from now, 20, 30, 40, or 50 plus, we will never allow you a moment of happiness.

This sounds really bad.

What could go wrong… 🙄🫣😣

Jesus we are so f'ed.

So yeah let's give all the data to Petey tiel I'm sure he also has are best interest at heart🤑🤑🤮😭🥹🥔🫠🙃

Wasn't he supposed to be stepping down to spend more time with his shell companies?

Too bad they can't find out how many millions Donald Trump cheated the IRS out of. 🤣😂🤭

Musk and his people had better know what they're doing which I already think they don't! 😠

📌

ughhhhhhhh make it stop

An API bridge to communicate with COBOL, JCL, DB2 running on old IBM mainframes. Good luck getting that done in the next century. Oh and I bet CICS is involved too. These idiots don’t know anything about SQL.

Does this mean we’ll have access to the current president’s taxes?

That is illegal

wtaf

Stop them now!! #HandsOff

*smh*

Remember... No Russian

So, they’re installing backdoors with a huge master back door to every agency. Gotta be worth billions to a few countries.

I think ELON MUSK and DOGE have hacked all Americans' secure information. I could hardly believe they were permitted to move Federal information to their offsite servers in the beginning of this nightmare. This new "Hackathon" is just another Trump Administration failure.

Anonymous will get wind of this and hopefully they can do something about it. I wish I was a computer genius sometimes.

Good. Make it all of them, and arrest them.

risky

Thank you for all your excellent reporting!

What could go wrong? And with Palantir involved, Thiel and Musk walk away with the keys to the kingdom. Tech bro coup continues unchallenged. We’re f*cked.

This type of software already exists on these platforms. They already communicate with each other. It is vitally important. Any mainframe person can tell you this. What Musk is doing is performance for Trump.

*Unconstitutional*. Damn auto-correct!

The barbarians are no longer at the gates but in the city and setting everything aflame for their own profit and amusement.

How the fuck is this legal?!?

Just what we need Peter Thiel with access to all our info…

THIS is actually scarier than anything they've attempted to date.

If they want to go after waste, fraud and abuse they need to start with the tax code. It’s all right there, trillions of it.

Palantir is a Genocide Company bsky.app/profile/mehd...

The loss of expertise with the dismissed technology staff is impossible to believe. How can they not see this will destroy the IRS infrastructure, and our government will be unable to be funded?

Youthful exuberance strikes again.

Tell me again why I am submitting my most personal data to this agency on April 15. Fuck these guys.

Friendly reminder: Congressional republicans can end this today!

Outrageous betrayal of American taxpayers. Pure evil. How can this be happening? I guess ethics and decency mean nothing to these crooks.

Now I can't turn my lights on and off.

Can’t un-think light switch lol

Making America South Africa Back When.

From Trump, the guy who steadfast refused to provide his tax returns to one and to all.

Jesus fucking Christ

Hell no!

No no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no

Honestly putting hard working hackers out of a job, now anyone can just join a hackathon and put their own backdoor into the IRS for free

Palatir and it’s Nazi overlords should be nowhere near our data

What?!?

Who will stand up and stop this Naz* & his Putin-paid incels?

Where is Anonymous?!?!?!

Sure, let’s go beta (or alpha) on the whole federal government. What could possibly go wrong?

At the moment, there are still many republicans who aren't aware of what is happening and there will always be the 25% trump cult members following him off the cliff.

We can't let them

They’re holding a hackathon because 1. they need more talent than they have, and 2. they don’t know what the fuck they are doing.

bsky.app/profile/mehd...

That, and just that, isn't a horrible idea.. We shouldn't be running critical infrastructure on archaic systems that so few know anything about. But not with a f'ing chainsaw. Chainsaws are for when you don't care about things needing to go just right.

Crippled IRS = no taxing the rich Gopers still want to them the rich tax cut. Yes the party of the working class.

I’m absolutely sure you’re correct.

REPOST:Your 401k collapse is a result of A FICTIONAL CHARACTER made up by Peter Navarro to serve as an " economic expert" to prop up his books! THESE TARIFFS ARE BASED ON NAVARRO'S IMAGINARY EXPERT. ITS A CON! youtu.be/MJbZCbBLqkk?...

They are trying to turn our free nation into an autocracy.

🚨🚨🚨🚨🚨

Isn’t this a violation of the privacy act 1974?

Throw him in jail. And his little DOGE buddies

Hopefully, some Good Samaritan hacker will always include Jeffrey Goldberg on cc:-)

Did you mean a “MAGA” API? This is obviously a Trumpian move.

Possibly they can save time by not commenting or documenting anything.

I would really appreciate it if you guys could hack into this “hacking event” and guarantee it remains a non-productive circus. @youranoncentral.bsky.social

How about “no?”

What could possibly go wrong!!!

Someone has to be able to hack them and mess up all this shit they are doing

This is very concerning. And what are they implying here? “…will be good for Americans and VERY GOOD for PALANTIR,” Palantir CEO Alex Karp said in a February earnings call. “There will be ups and downs. This is a revolution, SOME PEOPLE ARE GOING TO GET THEIR HEADS CUT OFF.”

It’s funny. Trump doesn’t want to release his tax forms, but he wants everyone else’s tax forms to be public.

That doesn’t sound like it will pose any security, privacy or data quality issues at all 🙄
