Dear family, they call this place prison, it looks like prison, and I’ve been issued what they’re calling a “lawyer”, but impossible as that may be considering they didn’t have a warrant, I can only deduce that I’ve been kidnapped by a vigilante to a remote location pretending to be a prison!
Pretty sure this kind of thing has been illegal since before Edward Snowden became a whistleblower, tbh. The US Government hasn’t cared about people’s privacy and the laws surrounding it for decades.
I mean…is that not assumed to be the default? Cell phone surveillance is pretty much just business as usual in this country is it not?
This is illegal without a warrant. And judges have been denying broad sweeping warrants that would cover such situations.
We are in different times. This administration doesn’t care about warrants.
never did. us three-letter-agencies have been buying data to get around pesky laws for a while now.
It honestly doesn’t care about “illegal” much either 😅
Edit: for themselves of course! Everyone else…

Strangely, it does seem to care about under-age people.
Relying on the rule of law is reactive.
Ditching the phone is proactive.
Be Proactive.

It’s endearing that you think that even matters anymore
It’s sad that people like you completely giving up are exactly why we are in an authoritarian slide.
They’re not giving up. They’re simply observing things that are happening.
Way to infer meaning, slugger.
If you think law enforcement violating the law doesn’t matter then I inferred nothing.
You’re assuming the ICErs give a shit about warrants, and they often do not.
