A hacking group called "The Com" released personal information of hundreds of federal agents, including 680 DHS employees, 190 Justice Department officials, and 170 FBI employees[^1]. The hack revealed names, office locations, and home addresses of agents.

The incident occurs amid heightened tensions, with ICE claiming a dramatic rise in assaults against officers, though these statistics are disputed. Colorado Public Radio found only a 25% increase in assaults rather than the administration's claimed "1000% increase"[^9].

The Department of Homeland Security under Secretary Kristi Noem promised prosecutions against those who dox ICE agents in July 2025, but three months later no charges have been filed[^9]. This contrasts with California, where prosecutors have charged three activists for allegedly following and broadcasting an ICE agent's home address[^9].

The hack comes as the Trump administration has pushed tech companies to remove ICE-tracking apps, with both Meta and Apple recently complying with requests to take down such tools[^9].

Yeah it can't read spreadsheets.

They, uh. They bury that part in the very fine print.

Why are so many people having issues with ChatGPT? It reads my spreadsheets just fine!

Seems like maybe the AI should say it couldn't open the file instead of just making shit up.

Ah, you just don’t understand transformative technology! That’s why all the smart people are throwing hundreds of billions of dollars into the fire pit! They get it!

Also, you shouldn’t trust it. They DO make that clear.

Transformative! A new future! Robots that crank out money!
