DEIAtruth@opm.gov is asking for non-stop spam. DDOS the fuck out of the US government.
Spam is easy to filter out. It's important to make it look as authentic as possible
Finally a use case for LLMs!
Oh God, I hope no one knows how to write an LLM script to write huge numbers of plausible-sounding reports sent from anonymous email accounts. It would be even worse if the reports were set up to send investigators into organizations that shouldn't exist, like ICE.
in this case, the first filter rule would be to route mail from gov and contractor domain to an actual inbox.
Good thing that's not hard to spoof at all
They'll just filter out anything not coming from .gov
Probably not a good idea if you're actually inside the US though.
Yeah, unless you're very sure about your OpSec, I wouldn't do it if you're in the US. Hopefully people from elsewhere do it with a VPN in the US though.
