It also directs Musk and DOGE to delete from their possession all non-anonymized personal data, and bars them from having access to SSA computers or code. </p><p>"Judge Ellen Lipton Hollander wrote that the SSA had likely violated administrative and privacy laws when it gave DOGE 'unbridled access to the personal and private data of millions of Americans, including but not limited to Social Security numbers, medical records, mental health records, hospitalization records, drivers’ license numbers, bank and credit card information, tax information, income history, work history, birth and marriage certificates, and home and work addresses.' </p><p>"She added that the 'defendants, with so-called experts on the DOGE Team, never identified or articulated even a single reason for which the DOGE Team needs unlimited access to SSA’s entire record systems, thereby exposing personal, confidential, sensitive, and private information that millions of Americans entrusted to their government.'"</p><p>Read more:<br><a href="https://www.rollingstone.com/politics/politics-news/trump-musk-stop-social-security-doge-data-1235300785/" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://www.</span><span class="ellipsis">rollingstone.com/politics/poli</span><span class="invisible">tics-news/trump-musk-stop-social-security-doge-data-1235300785/</span></a></p><p>Archived version:<br><a href="https://archive.ph/vvgMF" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="">archive.ph/vvgMF</span><span class="invisible"></span></a><br><a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/ResistDOGE" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>ResistDOGE</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/TakeToTheStreets" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>TakeToTheStreets</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/KillThePoor" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>KillThePoor</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/USPol" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>USPol</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/KillTheElderly" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>KillTheElderly</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/HungerGames" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>HungerGames</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/Authoritarianism" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Authoritarianism</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/Oligarchy" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Oligarchy</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/DisabilityRights" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>DisabilityRights</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/ElderRights" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>ElderRights</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/TakeCareOfThePoor" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>TakeCareOfThePoor</span></a></p>
