you won't be surprised to know that the new .gov websites (most of which haven't yet launched) are designed to illegally harvest user information on a massive scale.

Some of the independent investigative journalists on Substack have pieces out on it. The Drey Dossier, (Audrey Henson) utilizes an OSINT (open-source intelligence) methodology, analyzing publicly available financial documents and news reports.

She spotted at the bottom of Trump Rx a byline: Engineered in D.C. by National Design Studios. In inspecting the code behind the site she discovered some of the other entities being used.

I found a second vote.gov — and it's registered to the White House

In inspecting the National Design Studio's website and related material, she found 40+ more new .gov websites listed but not active. "…every single one traced back to the same place, the Executive Office of the President. The National Design Studio had built pre-launch versions of websites belonging to other federal agencies and registered all of it to the White House."

Every one of them harvests user data, every keystroke, etc. – a violation of federal law. The date is privately stored in Cloudflare servers.

They are expected to become active on July 4, 2026.
