President Trump's executive order to eliminate "information silos" within the federal government poses a significant threat to personal privacy and data protection. Consolidating sensitive data like tax returns, medical records, and immigration information into centralized databases creates an alarming risk of abuse and breach. This order appears to violate the spirit, if not the letter, of critical privacy laws like the Privacy Act of 1974 that safeguard personal information from unauthorized access. Forcing agencies to share confidential data far exceeds any efficiency gains and opens the door to mass surveillance and exploitation of citizens' private lives. I urge you to oppose this reckless executive overreach that sacrifices our Constitutional rights for the administration's misguided priorities. Protecting personal data through robust information security and privacy laws must be a paramount concern. Reject this assault on civil liberties in the name of vague government "efficiency" goals.
