Musk's DOGE seeks access to U.S. tax system: reports
Raw StoryElon Musk's Department of Government Efficiency has sparked alarm by seeking access to a system with the US tax office that has detailed financial data about millions of Americans, US media reported. But it has sparked alarm within the government and among privacy experts who say granting Musk access to private taxpayer data could be extraordinarily dangerous, according to ABC News. "People who share their most sensitive information with the federal government do so under the understanding that not only will it be used legally, but also handled securely and in ways that minimize risks like identity theft and personal invasion, which this reporting brings into serious question," Elizabeth Laird, a former state privacy officer now with the Center for Democracy and Technology, told ABC. "Waste, fraud, and abuse have been deeply entrenched in our broken system for far too long," White House spokesperson Harrison Fields said when asked about the employee's potential access to the sensitive system, NBC News reported.
