The latest #data demands are "absolutely alarming," & "reckless" & likely violate the #Privacy Act & other statutes, said Jon Davisson, senior counsel & director of litigation at the nonprofit Electronic Privacy Information Center. He & other advocates warn the data could be used to enable #deportation & mass #surveillance efforts & would do little to address improper payments.
"It is an unprecedented extension of the administration's campaign to consolidate #PersonalData," Davisson said.
In 2024, #SNAP served an average of 42M people each month, acc/to the #USDA, at a cost of $100B. Only some categories of lawfully present noncitizens are eligible to receive SNAP benefits, & those without legal status can never qualify. However, a noncitizen parent without legal status may apply for the assistance on behalf of their #children who are #UScitizens.

The emails obtained by NPR also show the nationwide directive regarding the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program, or #SNAP, follows a request by federal auditors for information that included #citizenship #data but not other data typically used to verify financial eligibility for the program.
#law #Trump #Musk #DOGE #USDA #PersonalData #immigration #privacy #InfoSec
The sweeping & unprecedented request comes as the #Trump admin ramps up the collection & consolidation of Americans' sensitive #data, & as that data has been used to make misleading claims about people in the US *illegally* accessing public benefits & committing fraud, & to build a greater capacity to deport them.

The geniuses at #FedEx decided that in order to delete my personal information I need to upload scans of the front & back of my ID. So, to delete my personal information I need to send them my personal information, and agree they can use it. No way.
They're also using a third party to collect it, so I would also be giving them the info. The US needs some proper data protection laws.

"Over the past #100Days, #DOGE teams have grabbed #personaldata about US residents from dozens of federal databases and are reportedly merging it all into a #masterdatabase at the #DHS… a #whistleblower had come forward to reveal that the master database will combine data from such federal agencies as the #SocialSecurity, the #IRS and the #DHHS. He also alleged that DOGE workers are filling backpacks with multiple laptops, each one loaded with purloined agency data."

I honestly didn't think this would happen.
Yet another way for people to force cookies and tracking on us.
The Sun website wants you to PAY in order to be able to reject cookies. I've not seen this before but am not at all surprised.
Just another thing to ruin the internet.
