Facebook is giving the FBI data on users who took part in the Capitol Hill riot, including their private messages, as many of the events that took place on January 6 appear to have been organized on the social media platform.

A criminal complaint filed on Wednesday against New York resident Christopher M. Kelly reveals that a search warrant was issued on his Facebook account, according to a report by Forbes.

Is this even legal? Do you need a search warrant or what?

Communicating on Facebook is the same as communicating on FBI.gov.

Perhaps they are turning over the planning messages on FB that antifa and other groups began communicating in mid-December.

Wasn’t there a big delay of law enforcement getting i-phone message unlocked from a suspect’s phone several years ago? All that “we so honor our cherished customers’ privacy with the utmost of consideration” and all that virtue signaling?

Anyone remember the details? Court, etc.?

Because Antifa scares them in several ways. Nothing about conservatives scares our government.

There is no such thing as private when two parties use a third party to communicate especially when the third party is a public company.

Plus I am sure that most of the social media giants, EULs allow them to cooperate with law enforcement.

How private is this forum?

Warrants not needed. They’re watching everyone they want to watch already.

For some reason they decided to make it public knowledge.

Remember when the Muslim guy Murdered his Coworkers?

Apple refused to crack the guy’s Phone because it was an Invasion of his Privacy.

warrant....

Like the many FISA Russia collusion hoax ones where a corrupt leftist judge was awakened at 3 a.m. and he just said “aw, crap, just show the places to sign, guys, I want to go back to sleep. What a hangover I’m gonna have and now this.”

Dump Facebook Twitter.
Go to Telegram:

Telegram Sees 25 Million New Users in 72 Hours
Messaging app Telegram has seen a massive surge in new users, largely by those concerned about their privacy.

Messaging app Telegram has seen an additional 25 million new users sign up to use the platform in the last 72 hours, according to Telegram CEO Pavel Durov. The app, which is widely used by many in the cryptocurrency space, doesn't share personal data and offers encrypted chats.

The influx of new users appears to be a result of rival messaging app WhatsApp changing its privacy policy. This update required its users to share their data with Facebook, or stop using the service.

Facebook is Deep State—but this is still kinda gross, like kissing your sister.

Get off Facebook.
Get off Twitter.
Scrub your social media presence as thoroughly as you can.

A really big hammer is about to fall. Don’t be underneath it.
