The presence of credentials in leaked “stealer logs” indicates his device was infected.

    Ars doesn’t let me say what I think should happen to all these DOGE traitors anymore, but man they are the fucking worst in every sense.

      Well, when all is said and done, they’re gonna be “loose ends”. Not that that really helps much.

    Foreign governments are feasting on the once secure data. I can’t imagine the self inflicted damage America has done to itself. I really can’t imagine what America’s enemies will do with this.

    user names and passwords for logging in to various accounts belonging to Schutt have been published at least four times since 2023 in logs from stealer malware.

    Oof. That’s embarrassing. He’s been oblviously leaking his credentials for months due to an earlier infection by malware.

    Did he install it himself?

    Like. Did download it and deploy it on the wrong computer?

    Convenient. Likely just plausible deniability.

      Well, I read it as just a description of Fred Durst in the late 90s/Early 00’s.

      He’s rollin rollin rollin rollin, and if his day keeps goin’ this way, he’s gonna break something tonight!
