- apples_oranges 2y agoIs this as big of a deal as it sounds? I mean he works for the government.. who had access before?
- duxup 2y agoYes, it is a big deal. Even within the irs you do not have uncontrolled access to tax returns.
- hitpointdrew 2y agoKnow who else has access to tax payer records, every IRS employee. Stop trying to make this like “oh my gosh I can’t believe anyone should have such access “. I trust Elon more than any IRS employee.
- anon2549 2y agoAnd I trust any random person off the street far more than I trust Musk. I spend a great deal of effort trying to keep my data out of the hands of Musk and his crowd out of a sense of self-preservation. This is handing very sensitive personal data to a group who has made it clear that they are my (as well as most of the people in the nation) enemy and want the worst for us.
- duxup 2y ago> every IRS employee No that’s a lie. That’s not how it works.

- leotravis10 2y agoToday is a very good time to file a tax return filing extension (aka Form 4068) giving the likely compromising of our taxpayer data and it's also a very good time to contact your state Attorney General and your members of Congress on this ongoing crisis.
