Let me spin that for you so you see the problem.
Mastodon, the social network backed by terrorists. By signing up, you put your name on a FBI watchlist as well.

Fair point.
Redirect it to Blue Sky instead.

… can a brother get a source on this??

I’m dumb; can they do that? I thought DoS attacks could be done without hacking, but a url redirect would require hacking, right?
Kolanaki@pawb.social 1 month ago
If they can change the page to a message, then they probably have the access needed to redirect the URL.

somehow I doubt this was a cyber attack and his teams ineptitude is just using them as scapegoats

“In the Ukraine area”… Smells like code for “Russia” that Trump is going to use as additional rationale for abandoning Ukraine.

Historically Tesla’s security is as bad as DOGE’s. They got hacked a while back because they had an unsecured kubernetes control plane exposed to the internet. Apparently being owned by a micromanaging, ADHD drug addict isn’t good for opsec.

Hey @anachronist@midwest.social, I realize you’re not trying to be hurtful to anyone in this comment (except maybe Musk, but honestly fuck that guy) but including a common condition that many folks live with in a list of things that make Musk a bad manager likely is hurtful to those folks, even if that’s not your intention. If Elon does have ADHD, that’s clearly not the problem since I suspect we all know tons of people with ADHD who are a) great at their jobs and b) not trying to dismantle the United States. In the future, please try to “Be(e) Nice”.

Yeah for sure. And regardless, I know some great security engineers who are ADHD.

I honestly would love it so much if Anonymous saved the world from this shit. That’s like teen dystopian drama level.

He is going to say Ukraine did it and use this as an excuse to shut off starlink for Ukraine.

He probably just didn’t pay a bill and thinks that’s an attack

Imagine not paying for your datacenter and the hoster putting something personal (rightfully so in this case) on your homepage.
