DHS Says Filming, Posting Videos of ICE Agents Is "Doxxing," Vows Prosecutions [View all]

https://truthout.org/articles/dhs-says-filming-posting-videos-of-ice-agents-is-doxxing-vows-prosecutions/

he Department of Homeland Security (DHS) says filming and posting videos of Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agents constitutes “violence,” and has threatened to potentially charge people who take videos and photos of agents conducting immigration raids in their communities, despite First Amendment protections.

DHS Assistant Secretary for Public Affairs Tricia McLaughlin told the Center for Media and Democracy that “videotaping ICE law enforcement and posting photos and videos of them online is doxxing our agents.”

“We will prosecute those who illegally harass ICE agents to the fullest extent of the law,” she said.
