Greg Hogan, an affiliate of the former “Department of Government Efficiency” (DOGE), has been appointed acting assistant commissioner of the General Services Administration’s Technology Transformation Services, where he will oversee Login.gov and guide its evolution into a broader “national ID” platform that could incorporate driver’s licenses, passports, income, citizenship and dependent information. Hogan arrived from the self‑automation car startup Comma.ai after serving as CIO of the Office of Personnel Management, where he approved a privacy impact assessment for a new email server used by DOGE to circulate controversial internal messages. His mandate, outlined by senior TTS officials, is to grow Login.gov’s user base and transform it into a world‑class identity service, a move praised by some federal employees for its potential efficiency while others warn it could become a centralized surveillance repository.
