Kristi Noem's DHS secretly demands tech giants fork over names of ICE critics: report

The Department of Homeland Security has expanded efforts to identify Americans who criticize or track Immigration and Customs Enforcement, sending hundreds of legal requests to major tech companies seeking information behind social media accounts, according to a report in The New York Times.

In recent months, DHS has issued administrative subpoenas to Google, Meta, Reddit, and Discord requesting names, email addresses, phone numbers, and other identifying data tied to accounts that comment on or monitor ICE activity.
