Yes, but that's what falls within the Privacy Act of 1974. Agencies are prohibited from sharing their records of personally identifiable information - even with other agencies (subject to some exceptions not relevant here). It was adopted after Watergate in response to perceived improprieties during the Nixon Administration accessing and using agency records for purposes outside of the reason they were gathered. As a general matter, if an agency like Treasury has things like your bank records and account numbers and whatnot that were collected for the purpose of making payments to you, they're not allowed to let a different agency like DOGE have access to those records. If you give your personally identifiable information to Treasury, it can be used by Treasury - but not some other department.
Sure. The personally indefinable record part is somewhat overblown.
Almost all databases are hashed up into pieces so they can be sliced and diced for data reporting and analysis purposes. It's 100% not likely that Treasury payment data is contained entirely in one string and can't be fractured out.
Plus - if you're receiving public funds there is no expectation to privacy that you're getting taxpayer money. You have the right to not have your bank account and taxpayer ID doxxed but it's not going to be a secret that you got paid.
The other restraining order that will get shot down is the one about halting the payment haltings.
