    So MAGA controlled software is all going to be full of security holes and none of their coders will really understand how it works (when it works). I’m sure this won’t come up later as groups are looking for ways to take them down.

      The security holes are feature. They can blame them on AI and still allow friends of Trumps to take all the info they need without Trump having to deliver it himself.

        Others who will be able to take and control the data may include Iran, Belarus, Russia, North Korea, and any shlub with a a copy of Kali and decent understanding of cybersecurity.

      This is NOT about the code or product, this is about siphoning money from US taxpayers.
