The United States Digital Service goes over to the dark side
The first administrator of the United States Digital Service (USDS)
was Mickey Dickerson, who left #Google in 2014 to help fix
HealthCare.gov via an appointment by President Obama. Another Googler
(and one my favorite people on this planet), Matt Cutts, later took on
the same role. They both did amazing work.
Now, with USDS being metastasized for evil by Trump and Musk, we can
kiss its legacy goodbye, but the great efforts of its past leaders and
teams must not be forgotten amid the coming toxic rot.
