Dell CameronPoliticsFeb 4, 2025 11:24 AMFederal employees have taken legal action to stop the operation of an unauthorized server linked to Elon Musk’s associates at the US Office of Personnel Management (OPM) headquarters in Washington, DC. The server, which was allegedly installed without proper authorization, poses a potential risk of exposing sensitive government information to foreign adversaries through unencrypted emails. The lawsuit, filed by two federal workers represented by National Security Counselors, seeks a temporary restraining order to disconnect the server until a privacy impact assessment is conducted, as required by federal law. The lawsuit also raises concerns about the implications of the server on the Trump administration’s plans to reduce the federal workforce. This legal battle highlights the ongoing tensions surrounding the operation of the unauthorized server and the potential risks it poses to national security.
