> We live in a nation of laws You stopped living in a nation of laws a while ago. Now you live in a nation of might makes right.
We'll see. The thing about the law in the US, it's slow and heavy. You'll need to be pretty mighty to move it if it catches up to you.
> According to a whistleblower complaint filed last week by Daniel J. Berulis, a 38-year-old security architect at the NLRB, officials from DOGE met with NLRB leaders on March 3 and demanded the creation of several all-powerful “tenant admin” accounts that were to be exempted from network logging activity that would otherwise keep a detailed record of all actions taken by those accounts. Feels like a pretty good Occa…
Some previous attempts for DOGE to get data has resulted in data being deleted before they can look and requests for judges to block access to data.
DOGE may be trying to be covert in order to stop these two activities from happening before they can get and review the data.

Without making any statement on whether I believe DOGE is being seditious, it's not hard to interpret their underlying intent as being wholly compatible with the definition you pasted. DOGE intends to hurt the government in ways that cause people to trust it less, with the goal of eliminating large parts of the government.

A twisted justification for suggesting someone who broke serious laws not face consequences. We live in a nation of laws, whether or not conspiracy-minded individuals prefer to follow them.
That law now officially includes an individual who is immune from the law and who can issue pardons to anyone for anything. So you live in a nation with optional laws.

This is just USAID. It's not even considering the cuts to HHS or other agencies.
The CEO of Tesla and Space-X; a self-proclaimed high IQ individual, an alleged programmer, has apparently hired a straight-up script kiddie to their elite delta force of technical government downsizers.
Not trying to defend the means to the end, but I would really like my tax money used more efficiently. I will also say am extremely worried about the levels of access that they are being given, especially since it comes with basically no accountability

Root on Linux isn’t exempt from logging. I also don’t know any enterprise that allows admin accounts to bypass logging. There is no legitimate justification for this request.
root on Linux can just kill the log forwarder and erase the relevant logs, or refill them with junk.
