This is, in addition to very obviously denying people benefits and clearly excluding the vast majority of seniors, a violation of federal law on accessibility, especially since X requires users to log in and agree to the terms of service to see published content.

SCOOP: The Social Security Administration (SSA) will be shifting its public communication exclusively to X, sources tell WIRED. This comes as agency plans to cut its regional office workforce by roughly 90 percent.

Plus, they are likely gobbling up tons of kickbacks and insider trading info to want to stop this evil administration.
Requiring use of a private social media service? No bid? Is it accessible? Is it legal? Why are users forced to see advertising and unrelated content?
To Elon’s company.
Seems TOTALLY 💯 on the up-and-up, don’t you think??!

This all smells too neatly wrapped.
get MUSK OUT NOW
So there are probably regressions, and likely no one around to fix them.
Musk wants to mine the data from ss and use it for god knows what,
It helps Leon's failing app.
"George W. Bush Reveals His Biggest Failure Was Not Privatizing Social Security"
This is nothing more than an oligarch carving off a piece of the federal government to monetize and privatize. Hell, Putin was less overt with Gazprom!

Say “yes” to any question a robocaller asks including “can you hear me”
Have been told to go fuck myself by lots of people who just had my “best interests” at heart.
Not for the blind
Seems the fact that Elon can ban anyone/ anytime from HIS site also gives this the: THAT'S ILLEGAL stamp!
The SSA also just covers Getting Your Social security Card.
so this kind of fucks over almost everyone.
seniors but also everyone.
I knew we were not important to a lot of people but it's hard to fathom that government and voters are this hateful. Of 73.2M beneficiaries, 16.8M of us have no income but Social Security. The dread is immense.
Many folks were outright banned from Twitter simply for being LGBT or holding certain views.
I’m not paying That Man anything, especially not for a government service ffs
Anyone looking for an endstate other than that still doesn’t get who these people are and what they actually believe.

Dems must stop this in its tracks.
They fire all the accessibility people in gov tech. Their own .gov website is not 508 compliant. They never include an interpreter in meetings. They don't even seem to know what these things are for.
