MODERATORS
The list was discovered by attorney Arlene Amarante, who stumbled upon the list while interacting with ICE’s website and found her own name on it. The list has since been pulled from the website, which is usually what agencies do when a documents is totally normal.
Fucking cowards. You wanted to make a list, you wanted to publish it, but then when it gets public attention you want to bury the truth. Let's talk about why you decided to use tax payer money to put that list together. Specifically, who gave the order to do it?
“History may be repeating itself. Once again, our staff and colleagues appear on a government watch list simply for doing our jobs—defending the constitutional right to seek asylum and holding the government accountable in court. The pattern is unmistakable and deeply alarming.”
It's extremely alarming. It's also alarming that very few people seem to know their history and realize this is very much history repeating itself.
Long before Trump openly began disregarding the law, abuse of executive power and abuse of authority in general by agencies or individuals within those agencies has been more of a tangible threat to our freedom and democracy than any of the reasons they claim make it necessary for them to continue to erode our freedom for our safety.
Sometimes the people that are supposed to be upholding the law and protecting our freedom are actually our biggest threat. Calling those people out and demanding public accountability is not a crime. It's how a democracy is supposed to work and it's in the shared self interest of every American who values liberty and justice.
ICE is a terrorist organization
I was told we can't say this because it'll mean Democrats lose the next election.
I'm further being told we should go after Transgender people, Muslims, and anyone immigrating from The Bad (nonwhite) Countries, because this is the only way to Stop Trump.
A Russian troll told you that.
The way folks on Lemmy talk, you'd never even know Americans make their own propaganda.
I wonder at what point we're going to hear a bunch of Democrats insist that the AIs are Russian.
How do you even accidentally publish a list like this onto your website? As a web developer I’ve never accidentally copied some random documents to a directory that’s later built into a Docker image. Is this like some FTP server or some other obsolete, Windows-style bullshit? I get really big “open SMB port” vibes from this.
I choose to believe that this is active resistance from within.
I really, really hope you’re right.
If it's not active resistance, it's the usual incompetence of fascists
Never rule out intimidation
Probably attached it in the CMS and didn't upload the file as private even if the page itself was, or something like that. Users mess up permissions all the time.
You don’t accidentally publish the list.
At very large organizations, sharing files easily is a pain in the ass. The available tools are usually tied to your Active Directory, which means you have to know who you’re sharing with, or at least have some idea of what permission groups allow what access.
To share documents appropriately, you still have to do the hard work of finding out who and what permission groups you should be sharing with, even if that means coordinating with other IT teams to make sure you understand their permissions structures properly.
Or you half-ass it, and put the document somewhere public and hope the link doesn’t get shared beyond your control (or found).
I guess I’m saying it’s not intimidation, accident, or resistance — just laziness and stupidity. Both of which are not unfamiliar ground for this administration.
Even easier with SharePoint. A part of my job is making sure that users doesn't accidentally share literally everything with everyone.
Yeeeaahh… At my org our default security policy for all of our site collections prevents sharing outside of our domain, and requires managed devices to access our SharePoint.
To share things outside of our org via SharePoint, a site collection with a different security policy has to be created, and only admins can control the sharing. We can only share with people who have some sort of identity service that can federate with ours.
No user is granted above contribute access, and sharing is turned off. (People can share links, but they cannot change the permissions of an item to share it.).
Theoretically it’s possible that a SharePoint can be created that allows public access, but to my knowledge we do not do that.
OneDrive files cannot even be downloaded by external parties (although they can be viewed in the browser!), and Teams workspaces are also not accessible externally unless by special circumstance.
I would imagine the federal government is… well, hopefully at least as locked down as my work.
OneDrive files not being able to be downloaded by external parties would really annoy me if it was like that at work, because that's what I have to use to share files if our or their email system likes to think that the files I rightfully need to send to clients are "inappropriate".
Seems like some systems block any files that are not a standard PDF file or similar.
It can be pretty annoying. We wind up creating extranet sites or using other services. (We have some ftp-like file services that work for us.)
I'd go with incompetent. This isn't too many steps removed from how insecure the no fly list was (iirc, Maia Arson Crimew didn't have to run any actual exploits to grab that and it was just an insecure jenkins)
Probably there's a set of pages that require login, and a set of public pages, and since ICE employees are always logged in, if they make a new page, they may not know whether it was internal only or public, and they never checked.
ICE publishes a list of lawyers people should use because they’re good enough to piss off ICE.
Yeah, a few of my old law school friends do pro bono immigration work now, and I think they'd see this as a badge of honor more than anything lol
It is. All fascist governments act like that.
Th surveillance state in action!
The best, good faith argument for creating this list of ICE attorneys is to refer detainees to a lawyer.
Yeah, it's suspicious, but the article makes a lot of unsupported characterizations, like "watchlist" and "covert roster" when the facts presented just say it was a list she found by browsing their site.
You are 100% correct, and the source is entirely left leaning. Bias matters. I don't think the concern presented by the article is disingenuous when considering the blatant disregard of the law we have seen coming from the executive branch this term.
