DHS is expanding its use of administrative subpoenas, which don’t come from judges.

Reddit, Meta, and Google voluntarily “complied with some of the requests” for identifying details of users critical of Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) sent as part of a recent wave of administrative subpoenas the Department of Homeland Security has been distributing to Big Tech the past few months, according to an anonymously sourced New York Times report.

    Never put your trust in any corporation! If they aren’t currently fucking you, just wait until they have one bad quarter. Then they will vacuum up everything of value to cover the difference. Every time.

    I yearn for a society where everyone in the tech industry has to move to a farming commune until they’re normal. They have to demonstrate that they can make something of value for their community, form a reciprocal relationship with nature and other humans, and do honest work that’s fairly compensated. We didn’t do that after IBM collaborated in the holocaust and they brought us to today.
