Borges alleges that a little-known federal tech team called the Department of Government Efficiency, or DOGE, copied the government’s master Social Security database into a cloud system that lacked normal oversight.

If his account is correct, the mishandling of this information could expose hundreds of millions of people to fraud and abuse for the rest of their lives.

This whole story is a nothingburger made up by the administration to try and take over elections. Social Security numbers have all been leaked since at least the Equifax breaches in 2018 and since. Everyone should assume their number is compromised and have a freeze on at all the agencies.
