Anybody else read the post about Elon musk raw dogging his data center migration ?

[–] [email protected] 30 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Yeah, I've worked in data centers a fair amount in my day and I can't believe they allowed Musk to do any of that to begin with. Every data center experience I've ever had was met with a thousand rules that were meant to keep the customer safe and I cannot believe they were authorized to do this in any fashion.

It's not about whether they owned the equipment or not, it's about the fact that they violated policies and procedures that were put in place to safeguard other clients and the privacy of their data. Total bullshit if you ask me and I'd be suing the data center afterwards if I was one of their primary clients for the breach of trust.

I interpreted it that NTT did nothing wrong (other than not physically stopping Musk)? A Twitter worker let him in, and he assuming didn't have access to data from other NTT clients.

Thank you. This is crazy. This article would work on the onion and with Musk, I don't know what's exaggerated and what's real.
