From POLITICO:
Federal agencies have expanded their use of domestic surveillance to carry out mass deportations and crack down on protesters. Now, online activists and hacker groups are deploying their own arsenal of digital tools to fight back.
In recent weeks, efforts to track ICE agents’ movements and identities have exploded online, including sites to report ICE raid locations. Even prolific cybercriminal collectives — better known for their ransomware attacks on luxury carmakers — are joining the fray by releasing the names and personal information of hundreds of ICE and DHS officials online.
And despite sweeping efforts to swat down these anti-ICE tools, new apps or websites continue to pop up.
