Dal 18 Ottobre l'US Homland Security sarà libera di "spiare" tutte le informazioni, messaggi, emails, etc. che girano sui computer sia
degli immigrati con regolare carta verde, sia
dei cittadini stranieri naturalizzati statunitensi.
Ovvero: controllare quanto scrivono sui facebook, su twitter, instagram, whatsapp, etc. .. ma non solo.
Tutte le loro "ricerche" sul web - google & Co. - potranno essere monitorate ( spiate ).
Cosa cerchi ? Perché lo cerchi ? Con quale scopo ?
Un "grande fratello" decisamente impressionante..
In definitiva tutti i nuovi "immigrati" saranno tenuti sotto stretto controllo e, se del caso, i loro documenti invalidati.
Con quali criteri di applicazione delle nuove regole di spionaggio, è ancora un mistero..
First spotted by Buzzfeed News, the announcement from the Trump regime was published in the Federal Register.
The new policy will not only allow DHS to collect information about an immigrant’s Twitter, Instagram, and Facebook accounts,
but it also mentions all “search results.”
It’s not immediately clear if that means the agency will have access to things such as Google search histories nor is it clear how that would be obtained.
The new policy includes 12 points of expansion on what DHS is allowed to collect, but numbers 5 and 11 seem to
be the most alarming in their ability to reach inside the digital lives of immigrants to the US and anyone who interacts with those immigrants.
From the announcement (emphasis mine):
“
The Department of Homeland Security, therefore, is updating the “Department of Homeland Security/U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services,
U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement, U.S. Customs and Border Protection-001 Alien File, Index, and National File Tracking System of Records notice to:
[…]
(5) expand the categories of records to include the following:
[…]
(11) update record source categories to include publicly available information obtained from the internet,
public records, public institutions, interviewees, commercial data providers, and information obtained
and disclosed pursuant to information sharing agreements;
The term
As Buzzfeed points out, collecting this kind of information would also have a dramatic impact on every single
person that interacts with immigrants to the US, since it would seemingly make all of their conversations
on social media subject to surveillance.
In the interest of full disclosure, yours truly is married to a US green card holder, so not only will my wife be subjected to
this new rule, conceivably I will as well.
The Department of Homeland Security’s US Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) did not immediately respond to Gizmodo’s request for comment.
We will update this post when we hear back.

“information sharing agreements”
isn’t defined in the policy, but it could conceivably cover both the types of surveillance agreements that the US has with
countries like the UK, Canada, Australia, and New Zealand under Five Eyes, as well as the agreements that DHS
has with companies like Google and internet service providers.
