Even governments can get hacked/penetrated. The article itself states it's a security measure that has been in effect for years. If you know that isn't the case let me know.

So if the government can get hacked that means anyone can track you were me but we’re not important enough to be protected? That seems to be a trend with this state government. It’s total bullshit that they can do whatever they want with impunity but you and me have to follow all the rules, and I’m never gonna stop calling them out on that bullshit.

We are also far less likely to be targeted for kidnapping by militias like Whitmer was. Mmmmm sweet anonymity.

Well lucky for those politicians they have 24 hour police protection, and they’re exempt from most gun control laws. Oh and those police are armed with weapons that are illegal to own by law abiding civilians.

In the grand scheme of things, we are not that important. Now I believe every human life is precious, but this world is unfair, always has been and always will be. Some people are more at risk because of the things they do whether your a gov official, law enforcement or even spys.

Who are we to be tracked? If anyone wants to track you, it’ll be someone inside your circle who is most likely not a cyber security expert.

There are bigger fishes to fry than barking at some security measure that has been in place for decades.

If anyone is hacking government technical infrastructure, it’ll most likely be another country.

What would china gain by hacking me?

Aside from it all, hacking isn’t even the big deal in all of this. There must be a more practical reason.

This is not a hill to die on but by all means do you.
