"I have nothing to hide." Here's what that looks like. A PhD student wrote an op-ed in her college paper. Detained for 45 days. The op-ed was the only evidence. A man sent one polite email criticizing a policy. Four hours later, DHS subpoenaed Google for his name and Social Security number. 47,000 taxpayers' addresses handed to immigration enforcement. These are Federal court cases in the last 12 months. Follow us and stay informed. #DigitalRights #DataPrivacy #DigitalSovereignty

Telegram uses centralized servers. ☁️
AmnyX uses... nothing but your device and the Tor network. 🌑
No logs. No tracker. Just pure privacy

AHS Privacy Violation? You May Be Owed Money | Louis Law Group

If you visited American Home Shield's website in the past 24 months, hidden session replay technology may have secretly recorded your clicks, scrolls, keystrokes, and personal data — all without your knowledge or consent. This could violate Florida's Security of Communications Act and federal privacy laws. Florida residents may be entitled to compensation at no upfront cost.

DHS tried to get a Canadian's Google data using a 1930s customs law, despite him not entering the US in over a decade. This sets a bad precedent for cross-border data requests.
