Department of Homeland Security Subpoenas Tech Firms to Unmask Critics under Trump
The Department of Homeland Security issued hundreds of administrative subpoenas to Google, Meta, and Reddit to identify social media users who criticized Immigration and Customs Enforcement or tracked agent locations.Following mandates from Donald Trump and his border tsar Tom Homan, the American Civil Liberties Union filed legal challenges to prevent the suppression of dissent.While some technology companies complied with the orders, others provided users with approximately two weeks to contest the subpoenas before releasing personal data in the
USA.
