Summary
Edward Coristine, a 19-year-old DOGE staffer nicknamed “Big Balls,” reportedly provided tech support to the cybercrime group EGodly through his company DiamondCDN.
EGodly, known for online of hacking government emails and cyberstalking FBI agent, publicly thanked DiamondCDN for DDoS protection in 2023.
Coristine, now a senior adviser at the State Department and CISA, did not respond to requests for comment.
Critics, including former CISA deputy director Nitin Natarajan, expressed concern over Coristine’s recent ties to cybercriminals while holding government network access.
I doubt that it will stop the fascists if the good guys quit though.

Ah! Right you are; I misread.
