Who of you folks isn't? I'm from Germany so I'm not concerned - for now...
Khalid El-Masri just wanted to go on vacation in Macedonia when he was detained and handed over to the CIA to be raped and tortured.

Someone else who had a similar name was on a list.

Homeland security is increasing the use of undercover techniques to infiltrate and interact with social media users in order to collect intelligence and target individuals, documents leaked to me reveal.

The new program, called “masked engagement,” allows homeland security officers to assume false identities and interact with users—friending them, joining closed groups, and gaining access to otherwise private postings, photographs, friend lists and more.

With this news, flooding social media with ICE deterrent bots is authorized, I mean, not that one has the presence to influence such a thing, but those that do, can.

Or try to remember a piece of wisdom too many people have forgotten: don't put it in writing unless you're content to have it read out in court or read it on the front page of a newspaper.

Marc Benioff 'Jokes' ICE Is Watching Salesforce Employees Who Traveled to the U.S.

This is an example of “Silicon Valley CEOs and their inability to divorce ICE and the complete lack of understanding of why that makes them monsters,” a Salesforce employee told 404 Media. “Employees are going absolutely apeshit in internal Slack about how completely awful it was.” Another employee told 404 Media that Benioff “then followed it up with a joke about not understanding the message of Bad Bunny's Super Bowl performance. On its own just seems out of touch, but coupled with the previous joke it does seem worse.”

Unlock your phone and check how many apps have access to your location. Every one of them is broadcasting your precise GPS coordinates to thousands of private bidders every time they serve an ad, and the federal government is buying that data in bulk.

That data pipeline is just one layer of a much wider system. In January 2026, an ICE agent pointed a smartphone at a woman standing on a public sidewalk in Portland, Maine and told her she was being entered into a database of domestic terrorists. She had done nothing but watch an enforcement operation from across the street. That same month, Google received an ICE subpoena demanding a student journalist’s credit card numbers, bank account information, and metadata, then complied the same day it notified him, leaving no meaningful window to challenge the demand in court.
This would be completely unlawful in the EU and the UK.
