Elon Musk's Department of Government Efficiency requested access to an IRS data system that retains the personal tax information on millions of Americans, sources say.
Elon Musk's latest venture involves a significant move into the realm of personal finance and taxation through his company X, formerly known as Twitter. According to sources cited by MSN, X Corp is planning to launch a new service that would allow users to file their taxes directly through the platform. This initiative aims to integrate financial services into the social media experience, potentially handling the personal tax details of millions of Americans. The move is part of Musk's broader vision to transform X into an "everything app," similar to WeChat in China, where users can manage various aspects of their lives, including financial transactions, all in one place. This development has raised concerns about privacy and data security, given the sensitive nature of tax information.
