Either Kegseth is too stupid to live or he is intentionally installing a massive security hole into the computer systems of the USA military.

And you know what? I can't tell which it is.

NOTE: When I say 'Security Hole' I am speaking along at least two and perhaps three axis. Can you guess them?

Yeah, as I often point out: Hanlon's Razor is a handy way to remind ourselves not everything terrible is a conspiracy or an intentional act of evil. That said? There's no reason to separate stupidity and malice as unrelated attributes and, indeed, many (most?) malignant people are actually quite stupid.

@jackwilliambell Any sufficiently extreme carelessness (or stupidity) is indistinguishable from malice.
