The Biden Administration will be partnering with private firms to surveil “domestic terrorists” online.

In other words, since the Biden Admin can’t spy without a warrant or probable cause/ongoing investigation, they will outsource it to the private sector.

The Department of Homeland Security can only browse through open social media platforms such as Twitter, Facebook etc. and cannot assume false identities to infiltrate private messaging apps.

However, there is a plan in the works to circumvent the Department’s limits so the government can monitor online chatter in private messaging apps like Telegram.

“If [the DHS] can find willing external partners that would help provide access to private groups on these encrypted apps, DHS and its federal partners, including the FBI, would be able to legally identify potential domestic terrorists and access information that could inform investigative efforts,” a source familiar with the effort told CNN.

CNN reported:

The Biden administration is considering using outside firms to track extremist chatter by Americans online, an effort that would expand the government’s ability to gather intelligence but could draw criticism over surveillance of US citizens.
The plan being discussed inside DHS, according to multiple sources, would, in effect, allow the department to circumvent those limits. A source familiar with the effort said it is not about decrypting data but rather using outside entities who can legally access these private groups to gather large amounts of information that could help DHS identify key narratives as they emerge.
By partnering with research firms who have more visibility in this space, the DHS could produce information that would likely be beneficial to both it and the FBI, which can’t monitor US citizens in this way without first getting a warrant or having the pretext of an ongoing investigation. The CIA and NSA are also limited on collecting intelligence domestically.

Last month it was reported the law enforcement arm of the US Postal Service is secretly monitoring and collecting Americans’ social media posts, according to documents obtained by Yahoo News.

The spying program is known as iCOP, or Internet Covert Operations Program and involves goons trolling through social media sites to look for “inflammatory” posts – and then sharing the information with other government agencies.

Last we checked, “inflammatory” language was covered by the First Amendment.

The Biden Admin is using the might of the US government, and now partnering with the private sector, to target anyone who disagrees with the regime (Trump supporters/conservatives).

Maybe we should all volunteer and monitor the Antifa sites?

My thoughts too. I can do it and provide timely weekly updates. All for the price of $350k/year with an advance paid 5 year contract at 1.75mil. Heck of a lot less expensive than the FBI, CIA, etc...

If it's not up to standards, fire me after 5 years.

Every case brought based on info collect in that manner will be tossed. SCOTUS has already ruled that any private party that is acting on behalf of the gov't can only do so with a WARRANT.
I'm sure Garland, as a federal judge said a a warrant wasn't needed. AG Holder said a warrant wasn't needed to search e mail or any other electronic source because the info passed through a third party.
Never store anything put puppy pictures on any cloud service.
 
This has me very concerned.

Has anyone actually met @kcult and seen him with a gun? :oops:
 
So when do well-schooled private groups start taking out Antifa and BLM? Does it start at the next round of brown short violence or when traditional Americans get fed up over the collective abuses from the left?

Either next door or 3 houses to the right. Depends on the quality you are looking for. We are after all in the Peak of Good Living here In Apex. And the best thing is the DEA guy is 6 houses to the left and has no clue. But probably wouldn’t care anyway.
