Fired Twin Hackers Unleash Chaos on Government Databases: A Comedy of Errors and AI-Assisted Cover-Ups
In a plot twist straight out of a cyber-thriller, twin brothers allegedly used their still-warm access to delete 96 government databases minutes after getting the boot. The duo reportedly conspired during their termination call and even asked AI for a post-firing cleanup guide. Talk about leaving your last job with a bang!
Hot Take:
It seems like these twin brothers mistook the concept of “brotherly love” for “brotherly hacking and destruction”! Not only did they leave a digital breadcrumb trail of chaos, but they also managed to turn a simple termination into a full-blown sequel of their previous criminal escapades. Who knew being fired could result in such a dramatic plot twist? Perhaps they should have considered a career in screenwriting instead of data deletion.
