Social Media Companies Will Snitch on You<\/a>. by Frank Figliuzzi (FBI retired):<\/p>\n\n\n\n<!--more-->\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<p>ICE is using a little-known investigative tool, an administrative subpoena, to force social media platforms to identify anti-ICE account holders. And if that sounds like a potential infringement on civil liberties \u2013 you\u2019re right.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Don\u2019t be fooled when you hear the word subpoena and think court order, probable cause, judges, and lawyers. A real subpoena issued by a grand jury or a judge contains all those elements, but not the lowly administrative subpoena that our government is now abusing to determine if we\u2019re critical of their conduct.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Here\u2019s what you need to know about the inherent dangers of this initiative, how your social media platforms are responding, and how we might be plummeting down the slippery slope toward government surveillance of our legal communications.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Lincoln Square: Hate ICE?
