Privacy concerns raised over Trump Accounts children's savings program requiring biometric facial scans via Robinhood
By
The Drey Dossier
Summary
A call-to-action post urging people to demand a Privacy Impact Assessment for the newly launched "Trump Accounts" federal children's savings program. The app was co-built by the National Design Studio (DOGE veterans led by Airbnb's Joe Gebbia) and requires parents to submit children's biometric facial scans through Robinhood, which has a history of security breaches and SEC settlements. The post argues this violates the E-Government Act and provides a script for people to reply to Joe Gebbia on X asking for the required privacy assessment.

· 3 pulledThe E-Government Act requires a published Privacy Impact Assessment before a federal system collects a child's identifiable data. Can you link the one for the Trump Accounts app?
To open one, parents submit their kid's biometric facial scan through Robinhood, the same Robinhood that got 7 million users breached and paid a $45 million SEC settlement.
Be genuine, not nasty. Sincere questions are harder to ignore and harder to dunk on.
