Summary
The Trump administration abruptly dismissed members of the Department of Homeland Security’s Cyber Safety Review Board (CSRB) and other advisory committees, citing resource misuse and alignment with national security priorities.
Critics, including former CSRB members, condemned the move as dangerous amidst ongoing cyber threats, such as Chinese-backed hacks on U.S. infrastructure.
The CSRB had previously earned praise for its investigations into major breaches.
Experts fear this decision disrupts critical cybersecurity efforts, while concerns grow over whether replacements will prioritize merit over political affiliation.
I disagree. It’s not about P25, it’s about shielding oneself and friendly tech bros from any investigation and responsibility for leaking or willfullty trading data. This agency was a threat to Muskie and Zuckie-chan, so it was put down.
