Computerworld: US Government sued after mass emails to federal workforce allegedly sent from insecure server

"...Musk appointees allegedly plugged their own email server into OPM network, breaking data security rules. ... The suit was filed after OPM sent two test emails to an estimated 2.3 million federal employees in a way that, the suit alleges, broke the E-Government Act of 2002 and was inherently insecure. Those rules require that a Privacy Impact Assessment (PIA) be carried out first.... The OPM did not immediately respond to questions sent to the hr@opm.gov email address."
