Can Einstein explain how the SSA would know if your dependent minor child was yours and eligible for “the number holder’s” death benefits if they had no unique identifiers?
Musk forgot the part about how the U.S. government *issues* your social security number. Is Musk that ignorant, or does he think we are? And I have used Paypal -- but they don't have my social security number. They have a debit card number. That's it.
Why you guys mad I'm doing all this completely illegal shit that has resulted in me illegally getting all this info i shouldn't have and gleefully posting about it
Oh man, I just realized. "The Everything App" is just straight-up Elon wanting to migrate the US government onto X, where it will maintain all of its current functions except with none of the democracy and Elon as sole owner & proprietor.
Musk has the ultimate echo chamber, where he can say anything he wants, no matter how wrong & ridiculous & a million bots screech, "You go, sir!" Learned it from Trump. Now they're trying to change every gov website & document to be "You go, sir!" for insecure white cishet guys.
PayPal stole $42 out of my account. I put it in there to buy something I ended up returning. They give you the impression you can just leave money in there for at least a couple years. Nope. Turfed paypal. With cash cards you don't need a good credit rating for, who needs PayPal?
Not surprised, we are still trying to access donations from our website, but paypal are not playing ball - they seem pretty adamant they are keeping our funds.
These people wouldn't care if Musk showed up on their doorstep demanding they feed him their pets. They'd have the pots and pans our in a heartbeat while telling their kids to say their last goodbyes to Fluffy.
In 2024, X faced regulatory scrutiny for using user data to train its AI systems without explicit consent. The platform updated its terms of service to allow the analysis of user-provided text and information for machine learning and AI purposes, raising privacy concerns.
"You can't trust the government unless it's being run by me, the Nazi who sexually abuses his own employees, tortures animals to death and roleplays as a child online" is an absolutely wild argument for anyone to make and it boggles the mind that anyone entertains it, let alone accepts it.
Being scared of the Government having my Government Authorized and Ensured information is like being afraid that my car insurance has the VIN, License and Registration information of my car, and has my State Issued ID License Number.
Musk having a hacker collective have my data is scary, though.
I remember receiving an email several years ago saying PayPal data was breached and I may have been affected blah blah. And it wasn’t a scam. It was from PayPal.
SSA has had my number for 53+ years. I have a deal with SSA. I have no relationship with Musk or his dogeboys, and they have no relationship with SSA. He thinks we're dumb.
Paypal is under strict governmental oversight.
Who is overseeing DOGE?
Does anyone know the origin of "Elon Musk is a genius"?
Or at least some evidence?
The government has my SSN!
The government has my tax returns!
The government has my home address!
The government knows who my employer is!
The government has my bank account number!
They even know my ethnicity! Omg it’s worse than I thought!
In never use PayPal because of Theil. I know a friend whose SS direct deposit is on the first Wed were dalayed. ever happened before. They ownt jsuthave access to our SS njmbers but our bank account numbers. Yes I do trust the current SA payment system. It works very efficiently.
At PayPal Trump was trying to make money as a banker. Now his explicit goal is to abuse and drive out federal workers, and shut down payments to various American entities. Very different contexts in which to trust him with personal data!
I can't believe the government that gave me a social security number has access to my social security number!!! Next you are going to tell me medicare is government insurance and disability is technically welfare...
And really telling just how unimaginably dumb Musk really is. He's only ever bought his way next to smart people. And this is the guy in the serves deleting files and deciding who's jobs to eliminate. Holy f*** we're screwed.
Can we please stop holding this man out as some kind of visionary genius and acknowledge the truth that he is dumb as a door? A rich, male version of Marge Green.
Didn’t his ass get bought out of PayPal for incompetence and for writing a bug that would allow anyone who you tried to send money to to empty your bank account
Elon Musk reportedly spent $40 million dollars on #Superbowl ads calling #USAID wasteful. Here are just a few ways we would’ve spent $40M: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PqUESHfuO_8
The Government that I pay taxes to and knows where I work and how much I make and provided me a SSN? Imagine that! Would be a shame if someone breached security and accessed that information..... (yes, sarcasm)
Well they have data on the transactions done through PayPal, and they have the required to connect to bank accounts but I don't see what else they could have...
He keeps likening the government to a business here. Well, if that’s the case…I didn’t enter a business agreement with you to be able access this data (much like PayPal, where I did). At no point, was I asked or prompted if DOGE could gain access. They just went in and stole it.
God help us when his goons get their grimy hands into USPS systems:
"Did you know the government has a giant database to keep track of where you LIVE? A DOGE engineer just discovered code that allows the Feds to INTERCEPT AND FORWARD your mail to A DIFFERENT DESTINATION!!!"
I fear we will find out how dumb some are, like the same who yell about keeping gubermint out of medicaid and want Trump to end Obamcare but keep the Affordable Care Act.
That an un-elected billionaire w/ terrible judgement & no accountability has “authorized” baby hackers with short but incorrigible backgrounds & no clearance to access my information with no clear intention & supervision.
To be fair, it's also how dumb he is. It seems like he really does believe that the gov having our PI is somehow a bad thing, with no legitimate purpose.
He's the biggest fraud in the history of the world.
what is that first tweet? the "would you care" one? Like... yes, I absolutely care that a fifty year old Yahtzee incel creep would have my personal info! I don't want him to have that!
I have no obligation to give a private corporation my information. (I don't have a PayPal account and never have.) I am, however, obligated by law give the government my information under the threat of criminal penalty.
He is setting up the argument that his privatised payer system will be safer and more secure than existing government payment infrastructure. He wants to profit off every social security check, VA benefits check and payment to or from the IRS, every bill the government pays.
also he's lying. PayPal abuses user data constantly and even steals people's money for the dumbest reasons and he was kicked out of the company because even those evil dipshits thought he was too stupid and greedy.
Unfortunately, enough people are that dumb. One thing you can't accuse Trump of is being clandestine. He told people exactly who he was and what he was going to do.
They claimed to have grown in 2000 from 12,000 users to over 2 million, so why would they have detailed info on 100+ million when they canned him? The answer is he’s lying of course.

I preferred the previous way.
He knows we understand *his* risk & seems increasingly concerned that *they* might get educated on what is actually happening to them/their nation.
Hence the propaganda during SB.
Someone ask that dude the same question but replace Elon Musk with George Soros.
For that matter, ask Mike Johnson, Tom Cotton, JD Vance or any other MAGA pol if they’d be cool with Soros or *anyone* else doing what Musk is doing.
Have they stopped issuing Tax Refunds yet.?
