I too can make any site say what I want through manipulating via browser dev tools. 🙄

Except that has nothing to do with the article.
"One of the sources told 404 Media that they were able to push updates to a database of government employment information after studying the website’s architecture and finding the database’s API endpoints."
Cool. Did they detail the exploit, or is this a "trust me bro" situation?
This was written by a journalist who presumably regurgitated whatever their sources told/showed them, so no. Also sounds like it was still exploitable at least at the time the article was written, so probably wouldn't want to write about how to exploit a live govt site...
