Platforms bend over backward to help #DHS #censor #ICE critics, advocates say

Pressure is mounting on tech companies to shield users from unlawful gov requests that advocates say are making it harder to reliably share info about #Immigration & Customs Enforcement (ICE) online.

Alleging that #ICE officers are being #doxed or otherwise endangered, #Trump officials have spent the last year targeting an unknown number of users and platforms with demands to censor content.

#Maine Secretary of State says she’s been #doxed after standing up to #ICE

By WGME-TV Staff | Sinclair National Desk

PUBLISHED: February 2, 2026 at 2:22 PM EST | UPDATED: February 3, 2026 at 8:53 AM EST

"Maine Secretary of State and gubernatorial candidate #ShennaBellows says she has been doxed after coming out against Immigration and Customs Enforcement.

"Bellows says her home address and personal contact information were spread online. She says this has led to herself and members of her family receiving threats.

"But for Bellows, this is not the first time she has been targeted. She says she was #swatted in 2023 for calling to remove President Donald #Trump from the ballot.
Bellows insists it’s a scare tactic, and that she will not give in to fear.

" 'Unfortunately, when I spoke out against #ICE and when I refused to allow ICE to have access to undercover license plates because a government agency and law enforcement should identify themselves as a government entity and law enforcement if they are going to be arresting people in the streets,' Bellows said."

💔 10M Dating App Users Exposed in Match Group Breach 💔

ShinyHunters cybercrime group claims to have stolen over 10 million records from Match Group (NASDAQ: MTCH), owner of Tinder, Hinge, Match.com, and OkCupid. The alleged breach, posted January 28, 2026, includes user behavioral data from Appsflyer analytics (swipes, matches, sessions, geo-locations), hundreds of internal corporate documents, and highly sensitive personal information including romantic preferences. The 1.76GB compressed dump appears linked to ShinyHunters' broader Okta voice-phishing campaign that has already compromised Crunchbase, Betterment, and SoundCloud.

🐴 Chinese APT Upgrades Backdoor with Browser Stealers 🐼

|Chinese espionage group Mustang Panda (aka HoneyMyte) has updated its CoolClient backdoor to steal login credentials from Chrome, Edge, and Chromium-based browsers while monitoring clipboard activity. Kaspersky researchers observed the malware targeting government entities in Myanmar, Mongolia, Malaysia, Russia, and Pakistan throughout 2025. The backdoor was deployed via compromised legitimate software from Sangfor, a Chinese cybersecurity company, and uses hardcoded API tokens for Google Drive and Pixeldrain to exfiltrate stolen data.

🚨 DHS Agents Doxxed: ICE List Leaks Thousands of Federal Employee Details 🚨

A whistleblower allegedly leaked data on ~4,500 DHS employees (ICE, Border Patrol) to a site called ICE List, exposing names, emails, phone numbers, and job info. While some data came from scraping LinkedIn, centralizing it creates a dangerous attack surface for harassment and phishing. Meta is now blocking links to the site across all platforms.

Raw Story

I am in this weird situation where I basically just #doxed myself and let all my insane #reddit garbage out onto the Internet.

I was basically having a year long mental breakdown up until recently.

So it's messed up.

I don't care. Guess if I am on the Internet, people are gonna tear me up anyway.

Best to get used to it now.

Voted in America? This Site Doxed You

Voting rolls are technically public records but can be laborious to get hold of. A right-wing site weaponizes that information by allowing anyone, anywhere, to search for a voter’s physical address and party affiliation.
