Summary
Federal employees have filed a class action lawsuit seeking a temporary restraining order to disconnect a server allegedly installed illegally at the Office of Personnel Management (OPM) by associates of Elon Musk.
The lawsuit claims the server, connected without required privacy assessments, risks exposing government employees’ data.
The server is linked to the Trump administration’s plan to downsize the federal workforce.
If the motion is granted, the administration’s “deferred resignation program” could be delayed.
“oops I must have bumped the power cable while working on the server next to it, my bad”
5 min of downtime isn’t all that big a deal.
I like your guys’ enthusiasm, but we need real solutions.
“oops I wrote down the wrong rack location for destruction”?
