Homeland Security is targeting Americans with this secretive legal weapon
- jauntywundrkind 9mo agoAdministrative warrants aren't real warrants. We've seen a supreme court that tears down anything not in the strictess interpretation of the constitution, but somehow giving judicial powers to whatever agency feels like it wants them is ok? This is always the worst of all worlds from the GOP state. If the cloud providers give in to this extra judicial bullshit, it will absolutely be a strong compelling reason to abandon big cloud entirely. These dime store badges these losers award themselves aren't worth the tin they are printed with, their illegitemate authorizations not worth the paper they'd be printed on. Super key story, super super sad seeing the cloud come under legal attack by such lowlifes.
