"Reportedly.'

That headline may be true. Or maybe it was released by 'ICE-helpers' trying to get people to stop all of the well-deserved harsh criticism. By now that's hundreds of millions of names to go through. Maybe that will help them burn through their remaining funds faster.

Don't forget your Chairman Trump's little thin-blue-line books, patriot! You don't wanna know what happens when the Little 'Murican Guards get you.

remind people, that subpeonas arnt Legal warrants by the courts, its and intimidaiton letter by a court officer, which is apparently very different an actual warrant or an order.

[–] hector@lemmy.today 4 points 2 hours ago

It's "administrative warrants" so it's not even a court officer. It's the police calling something a warrant that is a request by law enforcement to get the information. No judges, no courts are involved as I understand it.

This way though it sounds like they had to comply. Reddit did mostly comply by the way.

I make it easy, I sit right out in the open by my sign playing songs from subversive pro terrorist media like Disney's Robin Hood

Dammit I thought I was original by playing oo de la li

[–] whelk@retrolemmy.com 4 points 5 hours ago

Heck yeah brother! Not in Nottingham is another good one to play

I also love that my wife got me a shirt with Skippy brandishing his wooden sword and his quote "DEATH TO TYRANTS!" on it. She's a keeper for sure

At least we're safe here on Lemmy...

[–] 0_o7@lemmy.dbzer0.com 5 points 4 hours ago (2 children)

Your instance is behind cloudflare where the tls communication between you and the server terminates, where they get all your data in cleartext.

Cloudflare is a US based company.

[–] hector@lemmy.today 1 points 2 hours ago

Uh, can you explain that like we think the internets are a series of tubes?

[–] robocall@lemmy.world 1 points 3 hours ago
[–] Bonesince1997@lemmy.world 3 points 4 hours ago

I think it's the other way around. Everyone is "safe" from those on Lemmy because what's our reach?

[–] explodicle@sh.itjust.works 15 points 8 hours ago

lol 90% of the people in my city hate ICE with a burning passion.

[–] RoubaixRider@thelemmy.club 20 points 8 hours ago (1 children)

Read about this today and decided Reddit can fuck itself, after being told about Lemmy from a Reddit user. Fuck the oligarchy.

[–] hector@lemmy.today 2 points 2 hours ago

Reddit was already bad enough before they went public. Going public makes a company so much less trustworthy, and so much more beholden to government and other big business over their own protection of their users and products to grow their platform.

Partially it happens at the moment when a company's growth is rather saturated and they decide to maximize revenue, the entire corporate internet reached that point in the last 5 years really, the enshitification.

[–] KingThrillgore@lemmy.ml 24 points 9 hours ago* (last edited 8 hours ago) (1 children)

I ain't readin' all of DAT

Fuck ICE

Fuck Discord

Free Palestine

[–] Tollana1234567@lemmy.today 6 points 5 hours ago (1 children)

on a sidenote, the company behind DISCORDS age verification, and other online verfication was PALINTIR .

[–] CosmoNova@lemmy.world 1 points 2 hours ago

Meaning Palantir also catalogs all your Discord chats.

[–] Anarki_@lemmy.blahaj.zone 8 points 7 hours ago (1 children)

I am an illegal immigrant of the USA and ICE will never find me or my family 🙂

[–] Captainautism@lemmy.dbzer0.com 9 points 7 hours ago

I sincerely hope you’re right and stay safe.

[–] BlackPenguins@lemmy.world 33 points 10 hours ago* (last edited 10 hours ago) (1 children)

And this is why you push back on sites that require IDs.

Fuck you, Discord.

The administration of overly sensitive pussy ass snowflakes. DHS and ICE can lick my ass and suck my nuts.

They can also lick my taint, eat my shit, and drink my piss.

[–] HubertManne@piefed.social 11 points 9 hours ago (1 children)

Believe it or not Im not hiding all that much. Oh man though the full face sunglasses are kinda awesome. Great winter weather alternative to a face mask. Combine it with a nice winter jacket type hood and it blocks the wind rom your whole face. Im thinking it might be nice at the pool to because I find my face is the most sensitive part of my body for sunburn.

[–] theuniqueone@lemmy.dbzer0.com 29 points 12 hours ago (2 children)

Don't you know criticizing government action is terrorism?

[–] r0ertel@lemmy.world 7 points 9 hours ago (3 children)

I read a speculation somewhere that DHS want to declare all opposition to their activities as domestic terrorists and then remove their right to vote. There have been multiple articles detailing how the people who follow agents around and report their location are served papers later declaring them to be domestic terrorists and then they are placed on a no fly list. I'm sure more is to come. Reportedly, all the agents use facial recognition cameras to sweep the crowds for logging in a database, but another report suggests that the recognition part isn't working so well.

[–] Ensign_Crab@lemmy.world 1 points 2 hours ago

I doubt they care about how many false positives they get.

[–] hector@lemmy.today 1 points 2 hours ago

All while their representatives testifying to congress claimed there is no database of americans opposing ice. We all know there is, one of the police told the protesters they were on it and to have fun with that as well.

We need consequences for these guys lying to congress like that. Whoever that was just a few days ago should be forced out. He can't claim ignorance, or litigate the definition of database, he knows he lied, we know he lied.

[–] Tollana1234567@lemmy.today 2 points 5 hours ago

probably using AI to do it too. i think some states already try to use facial recognition on red light cameras.

[–] M0oP0o@mander.xyz 8 points 10 hours ago

Terrorism is going to become so hot this year.

[–] RoidingOldMan@lemmy.world 204 points 16 hours ago (9 children)

After years and years of complaining about 'censorship online' they're gonna start arresting people for what they say online.

[–] grue@lemmy.world 38 points 13 hours ago

It was always projection. They accuse their enemies of what they themselves wanted to do.

[–] bear@lemmy.blahaj.zone 3 points 7 hours ago

Gotta have lists ready for when the new larger camps are open. Haha?

WTF? I didn't know this was illegal. At least not yet.

[–] echodot@feddit.uk 9 points 8 hours ago

Under fascism anything they don't like is retrospectively illegal. I'm surprised you don't know that.
