US president movement to get US citizen's IP addresses
Before start, I want to put out that I have no political tendencies or affinities, I just want to be free!!!!! I want to be let alone!!!!
So, clarifying that, I want to share this news with all of you.
The fight for privacy rights and free speech (civil rights) keep getting steeper!!!
Today it was announced that the "Department of Justice" wants access to the 1.3 MILLION IP addresses of individuals who visited a Trump Resistance site leading up to the January inauguration(1).
Put it in easy terms, the Department of Justice, wants the "names and IP addresses" of 1.3 million people who simply visited a Trump Resistance website leading up to January’s inauguration".
This is how The Handmaid’s Tale and 1984 get started.
The DOJ’s search warrant is more than a step too far, it’s a step off a bridge. As seen in the past, people in power usually eliminates the opposition to gain control on the situation. Since history repeats, Trump wants to use his position as President to identify as many people who disagree with his politics as possible.
The Constitution’s Bill of Rights was written to protect citizens against the overreach of government. And now the DOJ is stomping all over it – attacking free political speech and the right to peaceably assemble. If American's (and residents) don’t push back now, the Trump administration will just get even more zealous with infringing on our civil liberties. The Resistance movement was built out of the need to protect our country and the people we love from a xenophobic bigot in the White House. Now Trump and Sessions have their sights set on them.
This is not a drill, this is serious action by the government!
So, if you consider it is important to keep your privacy from the government, contact directly the Department of Justice and request to back off. The other option is to "Sign the petition(2)" demanding they withdraw of their outrageous search for the IP addresses of Trump Resisters.
Thanks for reading and spreading the word.
