StopICE hacked to send alarming text messages, admins accuse border patrol agent of sabotage
ICE-reporting service StopICE has blamed a US Customs and Border Protection (CBP) agent for attacking its app and website and sending users text messages warning them that their information had been "sent to the authorities." On Friday, users reported receiving text messages from a phone number linked to the anti-ICE alert app …

Tower of Babel collapsing
A warning to Americans: watch out not to cross the line of civil war.
It is extremely sad to observe what uncontrolled immigration and impotence to manage it while still small has brought us to. Tensions are unavoidable in any civilization facing dramatic demographic and cultural injection. Trump or Extreme Right in Europe seem deterministically conditioned by previous inaction.
Meanwhile Spain has just decided to legalize half a million (!) illegals. This obviously invites more illegals to come. On the other hand this seems a reasonable step, when law enforcement has fatally crushed against the wall. The only sad alternative is similar to present USA.
And no, a demographic collapse is a lesser evil compared to flooding with complete strangers. Because demographic collapses happened in the past. Japan is doing OK - not perfectly, but OK. We have not seen it yet, but populations tend to stabilize if managed well. Cheaper housing anyone?
Uncontrolled immigration is similar to injecting a code base with catastrophically large number of bugs. A project can continue only when number of new bugs is below certain threshold. A country is similar.

> Fuck off racist
You don't understand the word IL-LE-GAL, it seems. And you don't understand what LAW is. So you don't understand significance of laws or democracy for a functioning society.
Yourself, don't be a racist, and open the borders completely! But before that, book a trip to a couple of ghetto-towns of Europe, to get a feeling what you are asking for. Unfortunately the majority of readers here must be reasonably well-off. So they never get exposed to such places or have local friends suffering from the change.
At the same time I partially agree with the hypothesis that Extreme Right is financed by the rich to redirect attention from growing inequality (Gary Stevenson, aka Garys Economics on YouTube).

Re: Tower of Babel collapsing
It is the 'Same' gibberish as always.
Same hate, same solution (once known as the 'final' solution if I remember correctly.)
All problems are the fault of 'others', the 'others' are in your neighbourhood taking away your 'rights', 'jobs' and need to be eliminated.
The arguments are repainted a different colour, every few years, BUT it cannot disguise the same 'Hate'.
When you get what you want and have targeted the current 'others', who do you chase & blame when nothing changes for the better !!!???
Far right-wing dingbats will never completely go BUT will cause huge harm in these uncertain times.
Be very careful what you wish for ... because when 'your' time in the gunsight comes, which it will, that is when you will discover how few friends you really have.

Re: Good
I'd be good with someone posting their names, ph num, address, and DL/SS number
Not a good idea.
If you want the moral high ground, you have to be "better" than those you are criticising. Once you start down the road to assisting fanatics on any side to start attacking/SWATing/whatever the bad guys, then you've lost that moral high ground. Plus it plays right into the narrative that the anti-ICE people are criminals and terrorists.

Re: Good
Well I agree in part. Doxxing every ICE agent is bad thing. But if you can name those who doing the illegal things that the government is looking the other way at, that's the only way there will be future accountability. I'm not talking about the murders, that's a separate issue, but there are a lot of smaller violent acts done every day that don't even make the news because there are murders to talk about.
There's no good reason to post the home addresses of those doing this, all that can do is lead to idiots threatening their families and giving Trump what he wants, but making their names and phone numbers public? I see no problem with that. Let them see how much people hate them for their criminal behavior (until they get a new phone number to silence it) And having their name will come in handy for future prosecution of crimes the current DOJ stooges refuse to investigate. If they aren't named now, it will be almost impossible to find out who did something several years ago while wearing a mask.

Re: Good
Pretti's shooting has now been ruled a homicide. And we have no idea who the shooter was. No bodycam's, masks, in other words, a government sanctioned unidentifiable goon squad. And lest we forget why he was murdered. He was trying to stop the goons from beating up a woman. And he himself was not a large man. 5'10", 147 lbs. Must have been menacing.

How is the information to be authenticated? Enough people have problems with just having the same names as somebody who has just become notrious and the knuckle draggers pile on to the first social media account they find with the name.
Open publication of personal information would allow anyone who has a petty grievance with someone to perform a form of SWATting by suggesting their victim is an ICE agent. As much as some people are overdue a healthy dose of justice, vigilantism is not a good way to go.

Re: Good
I never suggested beating them up like they have been beating up people. They are goons. But goons like to hide in the shadows. Put a light on them and suddenly people at their church, their neighbors, their kids, recoil when they see them and turn away. And perhaps we might find out not only do they beat up random women, but they also beat their own wife.

Re: Good
The problem is that even if 99.9% of people do lawful non violent protests, there are always some who are willing to take it over the line. If you had a neighbor who was in ICE would you want protestors shouting at him from the sidewalk next door? What if your car looks like his and you get eggs thrown at it when you drive down the street after picking your kids up at school? Even if there is no violence and everything is law abiding (OK throwing eggs at a car is technically illegal but it is hardly comparable to the crimes ICE is committing) innocent people are going to bear a lot of the blowback.

Re: Good
I’m a Christian. I’m not in the USA. Guy who I’d have previously thought were solid are all in with the ICE guys. It’s one thing to support the enforcement of law. To be picking up criminals. It’s another to be backing the guys who are kidnapping American citizens and by all accounts have killed people without justification.

The states where the anti-ICE protest actions are occurring, are also the states where there are serious accusations of fraud & graft... coincidence? ICE is working without issue in other states. Follow the money. Also important to mention that the same states with the protests are also under threat of losing their majority of Democratic voters and "turning red" from changing demographics come the 2030 census poll.

I think you will find the states currently protesting ICE are the only ones ICE has been sent to, and you will find that they are majority blue states that the Cheeto in chief has some beef with. They also have considerably fewer undocumented immigrants as a proportion of the population than places like Texas, which are true red and not having beef with the guy with narcissistic personality disorder and circulatory issues, which may have started to verge into vascular dementia.

You're ridiculous. Here's a nice recent news story from MN, released 1/23/26
Federal review determines rate of improper payments in Minnesota’s Medicaid program is far below national average
"New federal data released by the U.S. Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) shows the overall rate of improper payment in Minnesota’s Medicaid program is far below national averages.
In the review released this week, CMS found an error rate of slightly over 2.1%, compared to a national average of 6.1%. The data for the review was compiled before the Minnesota Department of Human Services began implementing new strategies to minimize the risk of fraud and harden its systems against bad actors. Reviewers at CMS checked billing statements and then compared them with medical records to ensure the billing was accurate. "

Not too far off the truth
The Washington Post led with this article this morning:-
https://www.washingtonpost.com/investigations/2026/02/03/homeland-security-administrative-subpoena/
It mentions something called an 'administrative subpoena", which like the "administrative warrant" is a non-judicial administrative form designed to have the force of a judicial warrant (without all that tedious business of gathering prima facie evidence of a crime, submitting it to a court and getting it signed off by a judge). Seen in this light the messages from the CBP agent to StopICE are really just a 'friendly warning' to fellow citizens of what's likely to happen if they continue with their subversive acts. After all, thanks to Palantir etc. there's actually no need to "report something to the authorities", they're already tracking what's going on and the widespread use of AI ensures that unlike traditional manual systems nothing (and nobody) escapes attention.
In many ways our Brave New World has already overtaken us, its just that most of us (including a lot of the lower echelons of the 'authorities') are left in the dust thinking in terms of old school policing.

Signing up?
I don't sign up for things that might be a wee bit dodgy or subversive. The last thing I'd want is to be on the register of one of those organizations that gets hacked or popped by the Man. I might still do those things or hold those views, but I try not to leave a clear trail I'd have to explain to a judge.

Authentication
In a US city which has had ICE kill people there, I saw photocopied fliers stapled to phone poles, with a number to call to report ICE activity.
Q. How does a caller know this number belongs to an activist organization, and not to a false-flag ICE operation?
A They can't know in advance.
Q. If the number does belong to an activist organisation, how does a caller know that the government does not have a "pen trace" active on the line, recording all phone numbers dialled from that line, and all phone numbers calling that line?
A. They can't know in advance.

Re: Authentication
I'm in MN, and a lot of my friends participating in the protests are middle aged professionals who don't give a crap if the government has their name. They're not doing anything wrong and have the money to fight wrongful pressure. The thinking mostly goes "There are facial recognition cameras and Flock license plate readers everywhere, so screw it, here's me telling you I don't like it. If I stay on the sidewalk I can make fun of anyone I want." Not a lot of scare left in MN these days.

Re: Authentication
@ Cris E:
Talk with some Holocaust survivors about what can happen "when the government has your name", and you are on that government's list of targets.
It would be so easy to relabel "protesters" as "terrorists".
If you're going to protest, do so in an intelligent way.
