                          The Senate Judiciary Committee chairman is demanding answers from CISA about an alarming data exposure incident wherein a contractor leaked oodles of internal CISA passwords -- including multiple AWS GovCloud credentials -- in a public GitHub profile for six months until notified by Yours Truly. The letter this week from Sen. Chuck Grassley (IA) is notable because he's the most senior lawmaker to inquire about this colossal screw up so far, and he's a Republican.

                          Mr. Nicholas M. Andersen Acting Director Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency Dear Acting Director Andersen: On May 18, 2026, it was reported that a contractor-employee for the Cybersecurity & Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA) maintained a public GitHub repository, a cloud-based platform used to store and share information for purposes of developing software code, that stored CISA credentials to several highly sensitive AWS GovCloud accounts and a large number of internal CISA systems, including passwords and cloud keys.1 The title of the public repository was reportedly “Private-CISA.”2 Reports stated “a review of the GitHub account and its exposed passwords show the ‘Private-CISA’ repository was maintained by an employee of Nightwing.”3 It was also reported the GitHub account that included the repository titled “Private-CISA” was taken offline shortly after at least two cyber-security research companies notified CISA of the exposure, but the exposed AWS keys continued to remain valid for another 48 hours.4 CISA spokesperson Marco DiSandro said the agency is “aware of the reported exposure and is continuing to investigate the situation,” and that there is “no indication that any sensitive data was compromised as a result of this incident.”5 However, according to reports, CISA would not say if the agency has seen any evidence of a breach stemming from this exposure.

                            **First entry into RetroShare: how to find peers**

                            In RetroShare you don’t “find people” in the usual sense. You don’t search — you agree. This is a fundamental mindset shift; without it, the first launch will always feel empty.

                            The first thing to accept: there is no global lobby in RetroShare. The emptiness after installation is not a bug, but the honest state of a network without links. Until you have trusted contacts, you literally have no network.

                            **The basic method — out-of-band contact.**
                            Peers are found outside RetroShare. These are friends, colleagues, members of thematic communities, people from Matrix, XMPP, IRC, Mastodon, forums — any place where key exchange can happen safely. RetroShare does not start with a “search” button, but with the phrase: “here is my key.”

                            **The second path — a control peer.**
                            The most reliable way for first entry is a second instance you control, or a pre-arranged experimental partner. This removes uncertainty: if the connection fails, the issue is technical, not social.

                            **The third path — thematic islands.**
                            There are small RetroShare communities built around ideas: privacy, P2P, darknet research, offline activism. They are not widely advertised because the network is not designed for random influx. Entry always starts with dialogue, not a click.

                            **What does not work.**
                            Publishing keys into the void. Waiting for someone to add you. Relying on auto-discovery. This is centralized-network thinking applied to a system where it has no meaning.

                            **How to know you’ve found a peer.**
                            The contact comes online. The connection stabilizes. Services start working: chat, forums, file exchange. At that point RetroShare stops being an abstraction and becomes an environment for communication.

                            **Bottom line:**
                            in RetroShare, people appear first —
                            and only then does the network emerge.
