> Wired beat me to the punch of reporting that a top DOGE employee, 25 year old former SpaceX employee Marko Elez, has not only read but write access to BFS servers.
Clearly if someone grant them write privilegies it means someone else had admin privilegies as well to that system.
How many people have normally access to it? Why is it particularly weird that someone working in the government have access to a system about payments?
It seems to me that generic fear is being mentioned rather than very tangible and clear dangers. It makes me feel like the people wanting to create panic have a hidden agenda and they just want to avoid someone from the opposition to audit the budgets.
How can DOGE find out if there are expenses that should be cut if it doesn't even have access to what is actually being paid?
I think everyone is generically afraid that their department is gonna get the cut and just doesn't want the audit to happen.
