CBP Workers Allegedly Used Government Databases to Spy on Exes, Crushes, and Colleagues
Customs and Border Protection (CBP) workers allegedly accessed government databases to conduct unauthorized lookups of romantic interests and colleagues, according to records reviewed by WIRED. The misconduct involved misuse of internal tools to track cell phone locations and personal information. Hundreds of such allegations have been documented.
Why it matters: Federal agencies, law enforcement, and CBP leadership need immediate action to audit access logs, revoke unnecessary permissions, and enforce consequences for unauthorized database queries; this exposures the broader risk of credential abuse within government systems.
