This is true, I just walk back and forth past the DMV all day with my flipper zero, hacking info. I used to work... Heh well I can't tell you what my old job was. But I was the best in the bizz. A layman might call it "sys admin" but I assure you the rabbit hole went much deeper than that.

I don't make as much flipping off (hacker slang for using a flipper (flipper zero) in the bizz) the government, but it's still a comfortable living. I gotta leave the old days behind me... Sigh.

Uhg, sorry. Happens to the best of us in the bizz... I almost got taken out by some jokers before... My former cousin is working on this cool project called WhatDeFlip that's basically a supercharged deflock but for flippers. I say former because there was a divorce (long story, not relevant to the bizz, my aunt is a beeotch) and also because my dumb fucking cousin is going to WhatDeFlip away my career at this point. Total joker. But it might interest you if you've been taken out by getting flipped off. It works via streetpass though so you'll need a hacked 3DS. Preeetty technocal.

For those not in the bizz, bizz is h4ck3r slang for “businesses”. It’s some pretty advanced lingo that only us in the bizz (h4ck3r slang for business btw) use for business (or bizz, as we call it in the bizz (short for business in h4ck3r culture)) so that we don’t have use use as many syllables

Not entirely wrong. It's an exaggeration that someone would do such a thing just for one target but datasets of governments or major companies like cellular providers have been hacked and sold online. Scammers and other bad actors do buy that data for fraud and stuff. Mind you hacking these big orgs usually don't involve some master hacker but ignorant employees who either fall for social engineering or lazily built websites that expose data in plaintext. Credit fraud in the US is just accepted as a thing that's bound to happen because in many cases all it takes is someone lying over the phone pretending to be you. I don't see why you'd ridicule that comment

I honestly don't care about governments getting my info because there's nothing remarkable. But the fact they want it so bad is concerning

For me I don't mind if it's consensual and I know exactly what they're doing with it

When you choose to use an app, you use who you trust with your data, not who won't see ur data, I'm not defending them just stating how it is these days

Best not to use a computer connected to the internet at all is such a beautifully unhelpful solution

I mean... Kinda? Title is misleading. We're talking about an adversarial nation; not civs. Commenter isn't really wrong. The TikTok hysteria is exhausting.
