A ProPublica investigation revealed how a little-known Microsoft program could leave some of the U.S. government’s most sensitive data vulnerable to hacking from its leading cyber adversary.

Here are the biggest takeaways from our reporting.

@ProPublica Vulnerable? More vulnerable than giving it all to DOGE?

@ProPublica How the DoD has changed from the days when I worked there, and they wouldn't even let greencard holder have accounts on sensitive systems.
We had to have all cable runs visible for inspection to prevent line snoops.
We were required to use this 'special hackproof font', and isolate power lines to prevent snooping.

Now they're like "Sure, just let MS do whatever".

I guess.
