If I told you someone went to your bank and demanded the right to setup accounts with permissions to do everything and to have all logging of that users activity disabled, and then a whistleblower pointed out that they downloaded everyone's bank statements, you'd probably be pretty up set.
After all, why do they need unfettered access? Why do they need your bank statements? Why do they need to hide what they're doing with the unfettered access?
That's what's happening here. There is no good explanation other than bad actors

The article specifically covers this point. They exceeded their authority.
The article does not define or discuss the authority of DOGE.
Might doesn't make right
An obvious rebuttal is they should not have that authority, and the possible reasons for having gained it are nefarious.
