Summary

Elon Musk’s DOGE faces 11 lawsuits over alleged illegal access to Americans’ sensitive data, violating the Privacy Act of 1974.

Lawsuits claim DOGE accessed tax, student loan, and employment records across multiple agencies, raising concerns about identity theft and political misuse.

A judge temporarily halted some data access, but other restrictions have been overturned.

Critics warn of serious privacy risks, while Trump’s executive order mandates agencies grant DOGE broad access.

    Given the current state of the US: does it really matter? Is there a real potential for Musk to face any consequences from this?

      Probably not but that doesn’t mean we don’t make them pay for every inch.
