Spam, hackers, etc.
a few days ago I received a email from my sister. it looked suspicious. I hovered over the sender and saw "ghazali.upha13@student.usm.my". impotent government can't track this down? why not.
a month or so ago I got an email that I reported to the Shenandoah County Department of Social Services. "
"I am reporting an email scam. my wife and I are in our 70s. We received an email that reads in part: "Your recent order with us has been confirmed and you have been charged $966.66 for 3 years. *This payment will be shown soon within 24 to 48 hours on your Account Statement as GEEK.NET*"
To: jw849565@gmail.com (***this is NOT my email address***)
Subject: Payment Information (Order Number: XA25R4E5)

I was not the first: Geek Squad Subscription – SCAM – (7/20/2021) – Phishing Net
after I submitted my report a message appeared that said "thank you for submitting your report. we will be getting back to you soon". that was over a month ago and I've not heard a peep from SCDSS. impotent government can't even do what they say that they're going to do.
Voting
so, like many of you, we routinely bank online, we routinely make purchases online, we have medical records online, we file our taxes online, etc. so why can't we vote online? answer: government impotence/incompetence.
I could go on and on, but what's the point?
