Elon Musk’s super PAC is stealing voters’ personal information—again.
The billionaire technocrat’s America PAC has launched an aggressive advertising campaign directing them to Vote Safe, a website claiming to provide users with information they need to “vote with confidence.” But all the while, the site is secretly collecting some information of its own, Judd Legum reported Tuesday on his substack Popular Information.
Any visitors to the site will unwittingly hand over their full name, birthday, home address, email address, cellphone number, IP address, browser, location, voter registration status, and district, not to mention every link they click on and every page they look at.
The website previously had a privacy policy barring America PAC from sharing this information with advertisers, political organizations, or third parties, but it removed that language last month. Now America PAC is permitted to sell or share your personal information with “our business partners.” That personal information includes not only where you are registered to vote but also the “inferences” the data makes about you.
The business partners include Facebook, Google, X, an advertising firm called the Trade Desk , a tracking company named Increment Data , and Iterable , an email and text-massage marketing company, among others.
In the last week, America PAC has spent more than $180,000 promoting Vote Safe , Legum reported. Musk has pledged to spend more than $100 million on the midterms.
This isn’t the first time Musk’s America PAC has pulled this grift. Ahead of the 2024 presidential election, the former billionaire bureaucrat poured $800,000 into digital advertisements to target voters in key battleground states. In certain states, users reported that the supposed voter registration website collected their information without ever referring them to register to vote.

What! Companies are collecting our online data? Really? Did anybody else know about this?
Xitter has made it company policy to collect and sell users’ data by requiring cell phone use just to login to the site. You can no longer use your PC — you must use a phone, and then Xitter has all your data to sell.
I guess donations to Act Blue are safe and anonymous.

The info is already public.
Sheesh.
Heels Up’s collected quite a bit, didn’t they...
Musk is the guy behind Grok AI. If he really wanted your personal info, do you think he would have to “trick” you out of it?

How does it collect all that?
😂😂😂, A swing and a miss!
The site adds a spy device to the user’s browser innocently named a “cookie.” /s
Musk is “collecting” the information that the user types in on their phone or computer. I think most users realize when they fill out an online form that someone is “collecting” the information. And somehow if Facebook and Google collect this information , and they do 20 times a day for every human on earth, it is perfectly fine, but if musk does it , it is evil.
What? They’re collecting our info? 😂👍
This site is leftwing full of garbage. Just look at that nasty headline. They will lie, misinform the simple minded because I’m afraid they can. Shun all leftwing medias, sites and such. Think for yourself don’t let them lead you and our country over a cliff. They hate you just as much as they hate the rest of us citizens.
