They sure let the fox in the henhouse with this one. Someone who used to work financial crime investigations. I’m concerned about the safeguards that were in place about information sharing between government agencies. There were strict rules in place for sharing information such as who owns a Social Security number. You need to follow proper legal process. I’m sure they’ve gained access to all the FINCEN data, which is really, really scary too.
"Big Brother" has arrived. Orwell was so prescient. How long, under the present regime, before the midnight "knock on the door" by ICE or some other paramilitary group becomes routine?
So scary. Every day something new. Every day we get deeper and deeper into authoritarianism. I try not to feel hopeless bc this is what they want. But man it’s getting harder and harder to stay focused and hopeful. I’m just so disappointed in fellow Americans who voted this narcissistic sociopath in.
Miles, your words are my first read every morning. Your post on this day, August 28, should put the fear of God in every American’s heart. Every adversary is gleeful and making plans to use this personal data in ways that are unimaginable - perhaps before another election will be held.
With your knowledge and expertise please continue following this latest travesty. It’s so necessary to keep us posted and on alert of what might be coming directly into our lives. I appreciate your reporting to us in real-time.
I wish I was surprised--but I'm not (outraged, yes; surprised, no).
It makes my blood boil that all the Republican elected officials have sat their asses on their hands and let this travesty of a regime wreak the devastating damage that they have. This being one of many, but a hugely significant one at that.
Each and every one of them should be held accountable for this and every related complicit, enabling act of silence and cowardice that put us where we are today.
Thanks for sounding the alarm, Miles, even though it chills my soul.
Thanks Miles. I too read your posts every morning and thanks for bringing this our attention. As a Retired Senior Bank Examiner Information Technology this post is very frightening and I hope that all the lawmakers addressed in this Whistleblower Complaint take action and investigate this matter immediately. The ramifications if this type of information is in the Cloud unprotected could cause irreparable harm for all Americans.
Everything planned from the moment Elon Musk was given the keys to the government under guise of rooting out waste, fraud and abuse. No one stopped them and no one knew what they were doing. Anyone who tried to stand in their way was just ousted. Then even after Musk left the raiding of databases continued and any civil servant who tried to rightfully and legally protect data sharing, I.e. IRS sharing info with ICE, that official was just sidelined, replaced with someone who was hand picked to provide access. No doubt they have unfettered access. They are next working on getting access to our health data. Coincidentally I got a letter from one of credit agencies that they had a data breach and my info exposed🙄🤨Fuck.

It's a continuation of "death by a thousand cuts". Here is a way Democratic Governors can push back HARD!

I hope the Democratic governors do this quickly!! Thanks for the link to read about this!
Well, THIS makes sense.
So scary. Every day something new. Every day we get deeper and deeper into authoritarianism. I try not to feel hopeless bc this is what they want.

And the Project 2025 should have been much more widely publicized! Very few Americans would have agreed with what's in the Project.
VERY FRIGHTENING! Thanks Miles for your reporting!
