Dogecoin Drama: Trump’s Cloudy Cost-Cutting Plan Puts Social Security at Risk!
Donald Trump’s DOGE cost-cutting unit allegedly put American records at risk by copying a key database into an unauthorized cloud. SSA’s chief data officer Charles Borges blew the whistle, claiming the cloud was less secure than a cardboard lockbox. And surprise, surprise, the only ones with access were DOGE employees!
Hot Take:
Who would have thought that a group named after a meme cryptocurrency could cause such a governmental kerfuffle? It seems like DOGE isn’t just making waves in the crypto world but is also doggy-paddling through federal data lakes. With unauthorized cloud environments and young tech prodigies running amok, it’s like a cybersecurity episode of “The Office” with a bit more existential dread. Who knew data breaches could be so… pawsitively chaotic?
Key Points:
– DOGE, a cost-cutting unit set up by Trump, allegedly duplicated a sensitive SSA database in an unauthorized cloud environment.
– The whistleblower complaint comes from Charles Borges, SSA’s chief data officer with decades of IT experience.
– Allegations include systemic data security violations and potential breaches of federal privacy laws.
– The SSA claims no compromise occurred, asserting robust data safeguards.
– Office of Special Council has 45 days to review the complaint, with the SSA responsible for the investigation.
