This week's comic: "Protecting the children"

I've been looking at the background of Branden Spikes, the senior member of DOGE who is director of IT over at X (his OG email is [email protected]).
Prior to joining up with Musk, Spikes ran a company called Spikes Browser, which tried to create a sandboxed browser environment. I met Branden in DC in 2013, and I actually used Spikes for a short while.
It seems that Branden used to be married to a woman named Natalia Haldeman (she went by Natalia Spikes then). Records published by ProPublica show that Ms. Haldeman is the CEO of a nonprofit called the California Russian Foundation.

When I search in the breach tracking service Constella Intelligence for spikes.com, I find tons of Yandex profiles for people in Russia who have spikes.com email addresses (all [email protected]).
Going to keep poking at this.
edit: corrected name of the foundation.
