DOGE reportedly planning a hackathon to build 'mega API' for IRS data | TechCrunch
Briefly

Elon Musk's Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) is set to host a hackathon aimed at creating a universal API to streamline access to taxpayer data. The event, organized by IRS staffers Gavin Kilger and Sam Corcos, seeks to integrate sensitive information such as names, social security numbers, and tax returns into a single interface. While this raises efficiency potential, concerns have surfaced regarding privacy and data security, as critics warn that such access could bypass regulations meant to protect taxpayer information.
It's basically an open door controlled by Musk for all Americans' most sensitive information with none of the rules that normally secure that data.
Corcos has reportedly been telling others at DOGE that his goal is to build 'one new API to rule them all.'
