The FBI in recent weeks has interviewed current and former election officials about the 2020 election in Milwaukee,
ramping up wide-ranging reviews of voting in the swing states that Donald Trump lost that year.

Election officials are watching the developments in Milwaukee to see if agents try to seize ballots,
as they did in January in Fulton County, Georgia.

FBI interviews election workers in a swing state amid Trump’s false 2020 claims
Agents in Wisconsin have been following up on debunked conspiracy theories as part of their queries, after pursuing 2020 ballots in other swing states.

Maximizing Qname Minimization: A New Chapter in DNS Protocol Evolution
Data privacy and security experts tell us that applying the "need to know" principle enhances privacy and security, because it reduces the amount of information potentially disclosed to a service provider -- or to other parties -- to the minimum the service provider requires to perform a service. This principle is at the heart of qname minimization, a technique described in RFC 7816 that has now achieved significant adoption in the DNS.

One such package is GNU Recutils, a set of tools and libraries to access human-editable, plain text databases called recfiles.
