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

I sure hope WE don’t do it. It looks like NYC already has.

He is not going to be able to do most of the things that he ran on.

Hochul Rejects Mamdani’s Free Bus Fare Proposal . . . New York Gov. Kathy Hochul dismissed Mayor-elect Zohran Mamdani’s plan to make MTA bus rides free, calling it financially unworkable. Speaking at a conference in San Juan, Puerto Rico, on Sunday, Hochul said she could not support a policy that removes fare revenue critical to the transit system’s funding. She suggested, however, that the state could explore targeted measures to make transit more affordable for low-income riders

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.

Government agencies monitoring social media has never happened in the history of the internet in this country until Trump ?

You are either a naive idiot or a hypocrite.

 

[Billiejeens]

It matters little though.
Everyone with a brain knows that Russia has far less liberty than here in America.

It just boggles my mind how many MAGA supporters don't give a shit about liberty & the Constitution anymore.

It's not a thing, so get unboggled.

You honestly think it ends with only monitoring what is posted in public?

Ask Trump how that worked out for him.

That’s what the Dems did - and we all know what devious weasels they are. Thus far, Republicans haven’t lowered themselves to their level,

And besides, I have nothing to hide. If someone is going to read how I support Israel, am opposed to DEI, think able-bodied people should get jobs, that’s fine with me.

OTOH, if I were part of a criminal enterprise helping illegals aliens violate American law, then I would worry.

 

[MisterBeale]

You are part of the problem, not the solution.

So now you want a final solution huh?

Given your support of the government destroying freedom and liberty, I get that.

If politicians cared about what was financially unworkable we wouldn't have any debt or deficits.

And he probably knew that would happen. He lied because in Islam, you are allowed to lie if it furthers the goal of an Islamic takeover.

YOUR side didn’t even allow your voters to pick their nominee for president!

While true

I think that also applies to anyone running for political office.

Right. In 25 yrs you get one State rep as they sit on the fence chirping.

While I do not have a problem so much with social media and the government monitoring public posts for criminal activity, it doesn't ever stop there.

The British, Russians and Chinese all monitor private emails and messages for content that is, "against the law."
Anyone that supports that garbage isn't a real American IMO.



This is how the five eyes and deep state spied on Trump, and subsequently made up bullshit to use against him b/c they didn't like him politically.


If you don't think that AI and the proliferation of data centers will enable the deep state to do the same to the entire population of the planet, you ain't none to bright TBH.

I agree thst emails are vulnerable to being read by unauthorized persons including the government

Five years ago I would have said that there was firewall protecting individuals via the FISA courts from government

But my faith in lib judges is non existent now

I marvel at how allegedly smart people in high positions write the most incriminating content in emails as if it could never come back to bite them someday

Yes, true…..but as a Jew, it’s scarier when it’s an Islamic who hates Jews and sides with Islamic terrorists.

But the wealthy Jews have second homes in Florida (or will buy one), and there goes Islamie’s goal to tax the rich white folks. (The rich white non-Jews will establish new residences as well.)

NYC will be turned into an Islamic ghetto.

Leftists once urged the Biden administration to comb social media asking Facebook, former Twitter, and YouTube to remove postings and videos that were deemed challenging to the administration or misinformation according to the administration.

It's only bad when Trump does it.

And we think this is new, why exactly? I fully expect all of my social media postings to be recorded and analyzed, who doesn't? Think, why does someone who gets in trouble delete their social media presence, only for someone else to pop up with something they posted a decade ago?

More excuses for this administration.

Just think of all the blatantly racist posts you have put up here. You should be ashamed of yourself.

Are you so naive that you think that vast trove of digital communication is somehow being ignored by powerful interests? Seriously?

If you need to tell people what they think, what they feel, and who you suppose they are in order to argue and discuss? You have already lost the debate, sorry.



Creating false straw-men, and then poisoning the well is naught but a low IQ tactic.
I can't say I am surprised coming from you when you post though.

People like you is why the govt is so ******* big. So nosey. So corrupt.

Cool hypothesis…since your reply to my post seems to have almost nothing to do with my post I’m guessing neither MisterBeale nor yourself have any interest in knowing the numbers?
Was your post just another way to say “I support the reconquista” or “I like to pretend the reconquista isn’t actually happening”?

No, but I do know how you right-wingers hollered bout fascim when Biden tried to stop the spread of lies and disinformation about COVID on social media. But now we see excuses when Trump wants to put everybody n 24-hour surveillance.
