DHS's Office of Industry Partnership was hacked by a group called "Department of Peace" and info about ICE contracts with over 6,000 companies is now published on @ddosecrets.org!

@dalias
You're right.
And on my home feed I'm choosing to unFollow some accounts as I want a Home feed that moves pretty slowly - ideally slowly enough that I "often" get to see posts by my most favourite accounts.

Thinking multiple bots could work.

FYI - some of the more perplexing names on this list:

The Linux Foundation
National Public Radio, Inc.

@manchicken @micahflee it looks like that started in 2014 and ended in 2018?
if i'm reading the dataset correctly. Still not a good look

@phillip sure that's correct and the best type of correct. Broadly it's true that donors with money always have some kind of vote

@micahflee I find this scrolling visible between floating menus quite irritating.

@micahflee Oh, I see this is from all of DHS, not just ICE, and also that it includes contracts which ended years ago. That's good to be aware of. I actually worked on part of this one contract, over a decade ago, and it was purely about improving cybersecurity for people's smartphones; it had nothing to do with immigration. https://micahflee.github.io/ice-contracts/?state=OR&modalType=contract&modalAwardId=937

@micahflee Departement of Peace? Reminds me a bit of "Minipax" from Orwell's 1984 or the same Ministry in Babylon 5

@skua @dalias These last few days I've been really glad I put a chunk of time in a while back organising accounts onto topic-based lists (which works better now you can have those posts excluded from your home timeline). Let's me avoid news when I want to, but still have it right there when something big happens.

Yesterday’s documents confirm the deep role of Microsoft and Palantir in ICE’s repressive machinery, with technologies enabling mass surveillance disguised as “immigration management.”
