@donray We are confident the DOJ will refile the un-redacted versions soon. Either way, EFF's briefs from now on will specifically name the DOGE agents. And the Court's opinions will do the same.

@manchuck For awareness, OPM databases maintain records on current and former government employees. If you want to know if your information from OPM has been disclosed to the DOGE agency, Rep.
