What concerns have been raised about Elon Musk's DOGE Service seeking access to the IRS data system?
Elon Musk's DOGE Service is seeking access to the IRS's Integrated Data Retrieval System (IDRS), which contains detailed financial information about every taxpayer, business, and nonprofit in the country. This system allows users to access sensitive data including personal identification numbers, bank information, and even permits adjusting transaction data and generating notices. This request has sparked serious alarm within the IRS and other government agencies, as IDRS access is extremely limited due to legal protections for taxpayers. According to the Washington Post, the White House is pressuring the IRS to grant this access to Musk's team of software engineers, raising significant concerns about data privacy and potential misuse of sensitive financial information.
