Grand Jury Subpoena Seeks Reddit User's Identity for Criticizing ICE
A federal grand jury in Washington, DC has issued a subpoena to Reddit, demanding the disclosure of personal information about a user who criticized ICE officer Jonathan Ross. The user had shared biographical details about Ross, which were already publicly available in news articles. This marks the second attempt by the government to unmask the user, following a previous administrative summons issued by ICE that was withdrawn after a court challenge. The new subpoena expands the scope of data requested and instructs Reddit not to disclose its existence. The case is part of a broader campaign by the Department of Homeland Security to identify users who have documented ICE activity or criticized government immigration policy.
