If they need access for work, why aren't they subject to records requests?? That makes no sense. Either they are working for US and are subject to telling US what they're doing on our dime, or they're not working for US and should be heavily restricted from OUR data!

Welcome to the News community!
Rules:
1. Be civil
Attack the argument, not the person. No racism/sexism/bigotry. Good faith argumentation only. This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban. Do not respond to rule-breaking content; report it and move on.
2. All posts should contain a source (url) that is as reliable and unbiased as possible and must only contain one link.
Obvious biased sources will be removed at the mods’ discretion. Supporting links can be added in comments or posted separately but not to the post body. Sources may be checked for reliability using Wikipedia, MBFC, AdFontes, GroundNews, etc.
3. No bots, spam or self-promotion.
Only approved bots, which follow the guidelines for bots set by the instance, are allowed.
4. Post titles should be the same as the article used as source. Clickbait titles may be removed.
Posts which titles don’t match the source may be removed. If the site changed their headline, we may ask you to update the post title. Clickbait titles use hyperbolic language and do not accurately describe the article content. When necessary, post titles may be edited, clearly marked with [brackets], but may never be used to editorialize or comment on the content.
5. Only recent news is allowed.
Posts must be news from the most recent 30 days.
6. All posts must be news articles.
No opinion pieces, Listicles, editorials, videos, blogs, press releases, or celebrity gossip will be allowed. All posts will be judged on a case-by-case basis. Mods may use discretion to pre-approve videos or press releases from highly credible sources that provide unique, newsworthy content not available or possible in another format.
7. No duplicate posts.
If an article has already been posted, it will be removed. Different articles reporting on the same subject are permitted. If the post that matches your post is very old, we refer you to rule 5.
8. Misinformation is prohibited.
Misinformation / propaganda is strictly prohibited. Any comment or post containing or linking to misinformation will be removed. If you feel that your post has been removed in error, credible sources must be provided.
9. No link shorteners or news aggregators.
All posts must link to original article sources. You may include archival links in the post description. News aggregators such as Yahoo, Google, Hacker News, etc. should be avoided in favor of the original source link.

They're special. It's in the name. SSA
Love to live in a country where the highest court in the land is a regulatory captured tool of like 5 unfathomably wealthy fascists.
So awesome.
to a foreign WEALTHY FASCISTS too.
50%+ of voters unironically do love it, tho.
Actually its less than 50%, they only won the popular vote by a plurality, not a majority. It was way closer to a majority than it should be though https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/2024_United_States_presidential_election
Unprecedented victory, I heard.
Murca can't stop winning.
I'm just so proud of our country! USA #1!
god bless, america.
The trump vs. elon smokescreen was an attempt to obfuscate this, I bet.
obfuscate the BBB, too. they did it the first time in 2017, with the net neutrality stunt, people were too tired by then to even care about that bill. also distracting from all the tariffs, and doge cuts that the MSM now doesnt report often anymore.
Their little feud was pushed a little too hard, it was more suspicious than any regular news story. I imagine facebook and instagram is awash in LLM generated memes of these two fighting.
Don't worry, your personal data will be perfectly safe with the agency with the comedy name, set up by the guy who did Nazi salutes, and which employs someone called "Big Balls".
And a direct connection to Russia.

The agency that so far, with all the prodding they have already done, found literally 2 cases of social security fraud. Literally two people.
What fruitful work theyre doing out there. At least by eliminating the security of our social security numbers, more people will be able to commit social security fraud, thereby increasing the amount of fraud they can find! Its genius really
Those alt-right, unqualified, just graduated college 4channers are certain to benefit the country here. Don't see how this can go wrong at all
History will remember John Roberts' SCOTUS as a cornerstone in the USA's decline.
Not when the Heritage Foundation is writing the history books.
I mean, a society under the heritage foundation would collapse, so at least they wouldn't be able to write the textbooks? 🤷♀️
Would be a shame if they were all doxxed.
Dumbasses.
Froze my credit today. Be aware folks.
the 3 beuarus made it easier to freeze this time around.
desperately trying to give gop some wins, by hopefully targetting dem voters.
trying to make it easier to identify D voters so they can purge them more easily, or harass them, plus identfy "brown people"
