DHS is expanding its use of administrative subpoenas, which don’t come from judges.
Reddit, Meta, and Google voluntarily “complied with some of the requests” for identifying details of users critical of Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) sent as part of a recent wave of administrative subpoenas the Department of Homeland Security has been distributing to Big Tech the past few months, according to an anonymously sourced New York Times report.


Yeah, that’s right. I guess they’re like “They’ll get court order anyway, so why should we even try to stop 'em”…
Edit: more likely they’re bootlickers of Lord Donald “The Orange” Trump and they probably hope to be in his favor.
