So another tax payer handout to Musk?

Man, he is THE welfare Queen

The way American politics are going, you need a full reset. There is no power that is not being abused but powers are needed for a government to work

Today getting some data on a user is bad as smart hackers can put together the context ... However any guessing the hacker has to do may alert the user before the hacked data can successfully be exploited

Now, a hacker would know exactly where each password goes and worse, they'd could learn the entire workflow of internal systems to successfully imitate a trained user...

This means the hacker could use the stolen bank data and legitimately issue credit cards to anyone they want (for example)

It's no longer "we'll expose some data", now it's "we can use this data to infiltrate your systems and wreak havoc in whatever way we want"

How could the db be all plaintext unencrypted?!? I mean this is amateur hour at display here

Hmmm I never seem to remember the names of the... Ehmm... Artists

If I’m a stock holder or potential buyer of stock and I read that the CEO is dumping billions of dollars of his own stock, I am going to think something bad is happening. Notifying the public in advance gives us more information to decide what we should do.

There is nothing in the SEC laws that makes it necessary to disclose the use of Rule 10b5-1 to the public, but that doesn't mean companies shouldn't release the information anyway.

I’m not saying the system is good, just that this is how it works.

Totally get it... which is why my comment was intended to mean "what the fuck kind of system is this"... not "Elon bad"... although, yes, Elon bad ;-)
