We've been warning about the expanding reach of government surveillance, and now here we are. This kind of mass surveillance program is dangerous for every single person in this country. washingtonpost.com/technology/202…

In the face of the dangerous overreach that these deployments represent, we're glad to see the judiciary ruling in favor of the constitution. As Judge Immergut's decision says “This is a nation of Constitutional law, not martial law" politico.com/news/2025/10/0…
"We’ve written extensively about the many dangers of using the military as an occupying force within our country. It puts people in danger, makes our country less safe, undermines our constitutional system, and wastes taxpayer money." Our latest analysis. pogo.org/analysis/portl…
This bill could become a model for how we protect our data and privacy rights! Thank you @ACLU_Mass for your leadership!
Big news! The Massachusetts Senate passed the Massachusetts Data Privacy Act, which would provides vital privacy protections, including a ban on the sale of sensitive data. We applaud this bill, which takes important steps to protect privacy!
The military is not a tool for domestic politics. Trump’s threat to send troops to Portland with “full force” authority highlights why we need guardrails on presidential power. nytimes.com/2025/09/27/us/…

Trump Says He Has Ordered Troops to Protect ICE Facilities in Portland
The president characterized Immigration and Customs Enforcement facilities as being under siege from domestic terrorists.
Casting constitutionally protected speech as "domestic terrorism" is flat-out dangerous. It's hard to see this being a tool for anything but targeting people and organizations that criticize the administration's policies. whitehouse.gov/presidential-a…

This likely violates both the Privacy Act and the Freedom of Information Act, and looks like yet another example of the administration weaponizing the federal government against its political enemies. This is incredibly dangerous. cbsnews.com/news/national-…
Our piece on this from all the way back in 2018 is, unfortunately, still relevant: pogo.org/analysis/these…
POGO's @DonBellCT joined @BorderReportcom to talk about a dangerous new development in surveillance: AI being used to track migrants. Watch the conversation here: borderreport.com/hot-topics/bor…

This is yet another invasive use of dangerous surveillance technology by law enforcement. It's essential that Congress conduct appropriate oversight to ensure that these drones aren't stifling your right to free speech and privacy. 404media.co/cbp-flew-drone…
It's long past time to close the data broker loophole. 404media.co/airlines-sell-…
BIG WIN: A federal court restricts the IRS from continuing to share massive amounts of taxpayer data with ICE. This is a victory for taxpayers’ privacy.
"The contract, signed last week, is worth $9.2 million, which is Clearview’s biggest award from any government department to date. Its second biggest was another ICE contract signed in 2021, worth $2.3 million." forbes.com/sites/thomasbr…
Another example of how easily a supposed local system can be commandeered for national purposes. 404media.co/cbp-had-access…
