Bit of clickbait as they reported it on HackerOne

Oh the irony.

> A ... senior Trump administration official allegedly told Via The Independent that “if a bunch of kids who have just started a company can do this, then potentially the Chinese aren’t far behind.”

And who are that "bunch of kids"?

> The company in question is called Cathedral, which was founded by former members of the defunct US Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE), a US government initiative established to reduce federal spending and bureaucracy, while modernizing government technology and operations.

The same "kids" that hacked every government computer system they could get their hands on. With Trump's blessing.

Note: this was via a bug bounty program.
