Just a suggestion TheCipher because I like your post this much. How about your post be sent to every congressional representative and senator.
Problem is you can’t send anything to a congressman or Senator unless you live in their district ( their system won’t let you in . It isn’t like years ago when you just send a regular email ). Having said that, my Rep is Trey Gowdy and I sent him a much longer and more detailed letter about this. Mainly that the testimony from the IRS Commissioner was misleading and don’t fall for it. He implied that the “disaster recovery tape - used for system wide recovery - is the ONLY backup they had. That is not the case because Exchange servers make automatic backups. I told him to call in the IT guys and to have one on their side to ask the correct questions.
