How ICE’s plan to monitor social media 24/7 threatens privacy and civic participation

[dblack]

Biden and his junta monitored conservatives social media 24/7.

Does that make it ok then? Or ok now? Both? Neither?

 

[excalibur]

.... and the enablers of criminals. It’s to the benefit of American citizens.

So, monitor Dem politicians it is!

The only people who have anything to fear are those who are acting in opposition to our nation’s interests by protecting illegals.

Yep. They get you scared of a boogeyman they create, then get you to give up your rights in exchange for "protecting" you from said boogeyman. This is how totalitarian governments happen, one step at a time.

The illegals are hardly a bogeyman. They are ruining the areas in which they settle - suppressing property values, lowering the caliber of public schools, driving up rents, and costing Americans $150 billion net a year.

Isn't social media public? ICE like everyone else looks at it.

So's your street. You mind surveillance vans outside 24/7, when Dems take over? You know, to make sure you're using the proper pronouns when talking to your kids.

 

[dblack]

Keep 'em scared, and convince them that only government can solve their problems.

That's what the left is doing. It's not what ice is doing. If you stand on a streetcorner spewing pronouns you are giving all in the public permission and ability to listen. If you put pictures on a billboard, you do it so people will look.

NNothing in social media is private. If you don't want ICE to listen, don't shout.

That’s what the Dems do: He’s Hitler! A fascist! A dictator! A Nazi!

Vote for Dems and we’ll save you!

That's what the left is doing.

I am against government monitoring our every move, I am not seeing the benefit to us that are loyal Americans. I realize that the government can read whatever we post to social media but to continually monitor it? Seriously. What are we 8? Biden tried to expand his power into social media and he was out of line, how much freedom are we willing to give up?

The excuse was the same, Biden needed to stop bad people, now ICE is monitoring it to stop bad people. Maybe the problem is bad government.

LOL - sure man. It's just them mean old Dems!

Ostrich up!

- "It's different, so very different, when my side does it!"

Actually, my side isn't doing it. If you don't want ICE monitoring your social media posts, stop posting. No one is coming to your home demanding you unlock your diary.

Thank you for your capitulation.

Pee Wee! You are truly a master debater.

Is this what you voted for? Another hallmark of totalitarianism.

When most people think about immigration enforcement, they picture border crossings and airport checkpoints. But the new front line may be your social media feed.

U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement has published a request for information for private-sector contractors to launch a round-the-clock social media monitoring program. The request states that private contractors will be paid to comb through “Facebook, Google+, LinkedIn, Pinterest, Tumblr, Instagram, VK, Flickr, Myspace, X (formerly Twitter), TikTok, Reddit, WhatsApp, YouTube, etc.,” turning public posts into enforcement leads that feed directly into ICE’s databases.

The request for information reads like something out of a cyber thriller: dozens of analysts working in shifts, strict deadlines measured in minutes, a tiered system of prioritizing high-risk individuals, and the latest software keeping constant watch.

Thanks for that. In lieu of the fact they may very well be monitoring me right now. I would like welcome our new friends to the board.

I would also like to remind them that any pardons do not protect them from state charges, OR civil suits which could bankrupt them for life.

I would then like to remind them that local prosecutors tend to make deals for leniency, for cooperation, so be sure to preserve records that can be used as evidence later.

Social media is a choice. You can opt out. Anyone can look through social media, including the government. More senseless whining about nothing.

You would be apoplectic if a Democratic aministration was doing this. ICE is not to be trusted.
