You know what is real? The FBI killed the Z-Library last month. They just let the InfraGard network get hacked. They’re spreading FUD against Apple’s new E2E encryption.
I’d rather us focus our energies on the substantive and real than embarking on another grandstanding set of histrionics about social media first amendment rights.
This is far from PRISM, which was surveillance. This is busybodying and enforcing federal election laws. Ho-hum. You want to call the FBI rogue, call them out for the important things they did wrong.
- simple-thoughts 4y agoI’m using the term “rogue” here for a specific reason. Trump was president at the time and was nominally the head of the FBI. Did Trump give a directive to ask the FBI to ban people for political jokes on Twitter? It seems highly unlikely. A rogue agency is an agency which is no longer following its democratically elected leadership and is instead operating independently. The FBI is now proven to do what we all suspected before - operate as a completely parallel oligarchic institution to the democratic ones that are in place.
