According to a protected disclosure filed with the Office of Special Counsel, Borges told the Government Accountability Project that DOGE officials working at Social Security created a “live copy” of the country’s Social Security records in a separate cloud environment that sidestepped usual security checks.

The group says those lapses put the Social Security information of more than 300 million Americans at risk.

    The onus is put on me to protect my info and identity but it’s never my fault when these breaches happen. It’s always a third party or a govt org that drops the ball. It’s so frustrating.
