Elon Musk, CEO of Tesla and SpaceX, met with Senate Republicans in Washington, D.C. to discuss his government cost-cutting plan through the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE). Despite being established as an advisory body, DOGE has raised concerns among data privacy experts for accessing sensitive information without transparency on its usage. The group, led by Musk, has facilitated significant layoffs across federal agencies and raised questions about violations of federal privacy protections. The lack of clarity around DOGE’s operations has prompted calls for transparency from lawmakers and concerns about potential data misuse. Critics worry about the security risks and biases associated with DOGE’s use of artificial intelligence algorithms to analyze data. As Musk defends the group’s actions as necessary for identifying waste and fraud, privacy advocates and lawmakers continue to push for accountability and oversight to protect Americans’ sensitive information from potential misuse.
