The Department of Justice has requested information on visitors to a website used to organize protests against President Trump, the Los Angeles-based Dreamhost said in a blog post published on Monday.

Dreamhost, a web hosting provider, said that it has been working with the Department of Justice for several months on the request, which believes goes too far under the Constitution.

DreamHost claimed that the complying with the request from the Justice Department would amount to handing over roughly 1.3 million visitor IP addresses to the government, in addition to contact information, email content and photos of thousands of visitors to the website, which was involved in organizing protests against Trump on Inauguration Day.
“That information could be used to identify any individuals who used this site to exercise and express political speech protected under the Constitution’s First Amendment,” DreamHost wrote in the blog post on Monday. “That should be enough to set alarm bells off in anyone’s mind.”

When contacted, the Justice Department directed The Hill to the U.S. attorney's office in D.C.

The company is currently challenging the request. A hearing on the matter is scheduled for Friday in Washington.

“In essence, the Search Warrant not only aims to identify the political dissidents of the current administration, but attempts to identify and understand what content each of these dissidents viewed on the website,” the company’s general counsel, Chris Ghazarian, said in a legal argument opposing the request.

The web provider published a purported search warrant issued by the Superior Court of the District of Columbia that asks for records and information related to the website and its owner, along with information that could be used to identify subscribers of the website.

This includes “names, addresses, telephone numbers and other identifiers, e-mail addresses, business information, the length of service (including start date), means and source of payment for services (including any credit card or bank account number), and information about any domain name registration.”

The warrant, dated July 12, says that authorities will seize any information constituting violations of D.C. code governing riots that involve individuals connected to the protests on Inauguration Day.

If they have a warrant which it sounds like they do, the website needs to hand the information over. All terrorism needs to be prevented both foreign and domestic.

This has got nothing to do with the first amendment. This is a gross violation of the 4th amendment.

The first amendment has some limits. Threats are not protected. Slander and libel are not protected. Anti-Trump sentiments should not be protected either.

I tagged him like a week ago finally. Think that's the second, maybe third tag ever.

Southcoast got one I know that.

On topic, I mean, what did we expect. A lot of the groundwork was laid out by Bush and expanded on by Obama.

It was written on the walls it would eventually be used this way (if it hasn't already).

Hopefully it's blocked in court.

I've seen it. Can't remember who shared it with me though but they posted it in a topic last week.

Edit: actually, I think you told me about it and it was a mock picture that was shared later in the topic IIRC.

Ya that's right I remember seeing the joke one with the beers on the sides and the paper plane hanging and all that and thought that was it at first.

Folks don't seem to realize how fast groups like Antifa are gaining steam. Now is the best time to do it.


I'm an idiot but are they gaining that much steam?

They're supposed to be anti-facisit (I assume that's where the name came from) and anti-establishment but aren't they largely just hypocrites (albeit, violent ones)?

Or are they just legit anarchists?
