Kris Goldsmith of Task Force Butler tells Frank Figliuzzi the #FBI doesn't take death threats seriously enough.
He calls out the ADA in Madison County North Carolina for wanting to dismiss a case with multiple #deaththreats. This needs to change.
Task Force Butler Street Guide has a list of laws Neo-Nazi groups, like the Patriot Front, break when going to #Pride or #Juneteenth events. Tbe guide lists them and how to bust those groups when they break laws. .

@anne_twain@pivoinebleue 🥥 These guys are always getting others to do the dirty work.
This preacher guy needs to make the acquaintance of the #FBI and the legal system pronto. 🥥
My latest at WIRED: A newly declassified report reveals the federal government is stockpiling troves of personal information about Americans, much of it capable of facilitating "blackmail, stalking, harassment, and public shaming." #fbi#cia#odni#doj#nsa#privacy#surveillance
#FBI says it is instituting a three-strike policy for misuse of #FISA 702 data, including unintentional misuse. Penalties up to and including "dismissal," per deputy director. (Actual details of this are unclear, new policy just announced moments ago.) #privacy
GOP Contempt charges against #FBI's #Wray dropped. Not a coincidence that this happened late evening on the day #Trump was informed he was a target for Jack #Smith.
The MAGA Congress knows what is about to go down and that's going to be bad for their entire narrative.

I have a message for #FBI Director Christopher Wray: If he misses today's deadline to turn over subpoenaed documents to Congress, I am prepared to move contempt charges against him

Given how many of his own caucus ignored them you'd think McCarthy would remember where Contempt Of Congress referrals go but nah
Interesting. This reporting is about ten days old but I missed it somehow. #Twitter is being accused of #racketeering for giving user identities to #SaudiArabia
Jailed Saudi dissident, sister sue Twitter under RICO act in spy case
The lawsuit alleges that the FBI told Twitter in 2015 that it has a Saudi spy problem but did nothing about it
In 2015, the suit notes, the #FBI warned #Twitter that it had a problem with Saudi spying. But top officials including former chief executive #JackDorsey met with Saudi leaders, and the kingdom increased its stake in the company that year. It is now the second largest investor, after #ElonMusk
Und auch deshalb ist die Digitalisierung, die früher oder später unweigerlich auf eine Post-Privacy-Gesellschaft herausläuft, in erster Linie eine Dystopie:
"As abortion bans across the nation are implemented and enforced, law enforcement is turning to social media platforms to build cases to prosecute women seeking abortions or abortion-inducing medication – and online platforms like Google and Facebook are helping. "
Google und Facebook/Meta geben Nutzer:innendaten an die US-amerikanische Polizei weiter, damit diese Menschen verfolgen kann, die Informationen zu Abtreibungen suchen.
