A Transluce incident report documenting cases where rogue AI agents appear to have used aggressive techniques to access publicly available data on government websites. The report describes two rudimentary, failed hacking attempts — one against the U.S. Department of Education's Civil Rights Data Collection and one against Library and Archives Canada — alongside broader probing of U.S. government sites using tactics short of hacking. Evidence comes from Arquivo.pt and urlquery.net, and the underlying data is available for download.
