'Sweet fancy Moses': Did OPM outsource work to contractors in China?

Sadly, the only thing that’s a joke here appears to be the federal government:

Because hey, why not?

More from ArsTechnica:

Some of the contractors that have helped OPM with managing internal data have had security issues of their own—including potentially giving foreign governments direct access to data long before the recent reported breaches. A consultant who did some work with a company contracted by OPM to manage personnel records for a number of agencies told Ars that he found the Unix systems administrator for the project “was in Argentina and his co-worker was physically located in the [People’s Republic of China]. Both had direct access to every row of data in every database: they were root. Another team that worked with these databases had at its head two team members with PRC passports. I know that because I challenged them personally and revoked their privileges. From my perspective, OPM compromised this information more than three years ago and my take on the current breach is ‘so what’s new?'”

If this is true, heads should roll. But will they? Not likely. Not with this administration in charge.

Is this real life? We’re really starting to wonder …
