Anti-Trump Site Under Seige From Justice Department

THE DEPARTMENT OF JUSTICE IS DEMANDING PERSONAL INFORMATION
AND IDENTIFYING INFORMATION ON INDIVIDUALS WHO HAVE FREQUENTED
AN ANTI-TRUMP WEBSITE.
THE COMPANY THAT HOSTS THE URL IS
DREAM HOST, THEY ARE LOCATED IN LOS ANGELES, AND THEY HAVE
SPOKEN TO THE MEDIA AND ALSO RELEASED A BLOG POST ABOUT THIS,
AND THEY ARE CONCERNED THAT THIS COULD LEAD TO UNFAIR RETALIATION
AGAINST PEOPLE WHO SIBLEY DON'T LIKE TRUMP.
NOW --
TO BE MORE SPECIFIC ON THE DETAILS THEY ARE ASKING FOR,
THEY HAVE REQUESTED NAMES, ADDRESSES, TELEPHONE NUMBERS,
EMAIL ADDRESSES, BUSINESS INFORMATION, LENGTH OF SERVICE,
MEANING HOW LONG HAVE THEY BEEN GOING TO THIS WEBSITE, ALSO THE
MEANS AND SOURCE OF PAYMENT FOR SERVICES INCLUDING ANY CREDIT
CARD OR BANK ACCOUNT INFORMATION, AND ALSO
INFORMATION ABOUT ANY DOMAIN NAME REGISTRATION.
KEEP IN MIND
THAT THE TRUMP ADMINISTRATION WAS ALSO GOING STATE-BY-STATE
ASKING FOR DETAILED PERSONAL INFORMATION ON INDIVIDUALS AND
WHO THEY VOTED FOR, SECRETARIES OF STATE IN SOME INSTANCES
DENIED THEM ACCESS TO THAT INFORMATION, NOW THEY ARE GOING
AFTER PEOPLE WHO ARE VISITING A RESIST WEBSITE.
THIS IS CRAZY, THIS IS INSANE.
THERE ARE 1000 THINGS WRONG WITH THIS.
FIRST OF ALL, AGAIN,
IF YOU ARE AN ADVOCATE OF FREEDOM OF SPEECH, OTHER YOU ARE
ON THE LEFT OR THE RIGHT, YOU HATE THIS.
THESE ARE PEOPLE WHO
ARE EXERCISING THEIR FREEDOM OF SPEECH TO PROTEST THE
GOVERNMENT.
RIGHT-WINGERS HAVE ALSO DONE THAT.
CAN YOU IMAGINE
IF UNDER OBAMA, OBAMA IS LIKE, YOU WANT TO PROTEST ME?
I WANT
YOUR NAME, ADDRESS, PHONE NUMBER, BANK ACCOUNT AND PRIVATE
INFORMATION, FOR ANYONE WHO DARED TO PROTEST ME.
FIRST THEY
WOULD'VE LOST THEIR MINDS, SECOND THEY WOULD HAVE THOUGHT
HE WAS GOING TO SET UP FEMA CAMPS, ETC., THEY WOULD HAVE
BEEN DEAD SET AGAINST IT AND THEY WOULD'VE SCREAMED FREEDOM
OF SPEECH.
BY THE WAY YOU WOULD HAVE BEEN RIGHT, I DON'T WANT
OBAMA, TRUMP, A DEMOCRAT, REPUBLICAN, GETTING ALL THE
INFORMATION FOR PEOPLE WHO PROTESTED THEM.
THAT'S THE MOST
UN-AMERICAN THING YOU CAN DO.
THAT IN THE FIRST AMENDMENT.
IF YOU ARE A RIGHT-WINGER I HOPE YOU ARE OUTRAGED BY THIS
STORY AND BREATHING FIRE OVER IT TODAY.
THIS IS WHY WHAT EDWARD SNOWDEN DID WAS SO IMPORTANT,
INFORMING US WHAT THE NSA WAS DOING WHEN THEY WERE
INDISCRIMINATELY COLLECTING METADATA ON US.
IT WAS IMPORTANT
BECAUSE IT COULD BE USED AS A FORM OF INTIMIDATION AGAINST
PEOPLE WHO SPEAK TRUTH TO POWER, WHO PROTEST THE GOVERNMENT -- IF
THEY ARE MONITORING YOUR ACTIVITY AND BEHAVIOR ONLINE,
THEY HAVE LEVERAGE OVER YOU. AND WHO'S TO SAY THAT IF A LIBERAL
OR DEMOCRAT PRESIDENT DOES IT THAT IT'S NOT GOING TO BE
UTILIZED BY A RIGHT-WING PRESIDENT, SOMEONE AS DANGEROUS
AS TRUMP?
THAT WAS A TERRIBLE THING THAT HAPPENED UNDER THE
OBAMA ADMINISTRATION, AND THE REASON WE CRITICIZED IT WAS
BECAUSE IT WAS WRONG.
BUT YOU DON'T HEAR PEOPLE ON THE RIGHT CRITICIZING WHAT IS
GOING ON WITH THE TRUMP ADMINISTRATION.
NET NEUTRALITY SHOULD UNIFY US.
RIGHT-WINGERS GET THAT HEY,
THEY COULD SHUT DOWN OUR WEBSITES TOO.
THIS IS A SIMILAR
ISSUE, BECAUSE IF YOU ARE WORRIED ABOUT FEMA CAMPS AND HOW
THE LEFT WANTS TO CONTROL YOUR LIVES, ETC., WHEN TRUMP IS OUT
OF OFFICE AND THERE IS A LEFT-WING PRESIDENT, YOUR
FANTASIES ABOUT HOW THEY WILL SEIZE YOUR GUNS AND YOUR ASSETS
AND ALL THAT STUFF, NOTHING WOULD HELP THEM MORE THAN THIS.
YOU WANT TO TALK ABOUT GOVERNMENT SEIZURE OF ALL YOU
HOLD DEAR, THIS IS HOW THEY WOULD START.
IT SHOULD BE A HELL
KNOW FROM THE RIGHT WING AND A LEFT-WING AND FROM ANYONE IN
AMERICA WHO BELIEVES IN AMERICA.
BY THE WAY, THE JUDGE WHO GAVE
THIS WARRANT -- IT WAS A HORRIBLE, HORRIBLE MISTAKE.
BECAUSE WHAT THE JUSTICE DEPARTMENT CLAIMED WAS DURING
INAUGURATION THERE WERE 200 PEOPLE THAT WERE ARRESTED, THEY
DIDN'T NECESSARILY DO VIOLENCE BUT THEY CALLED THEM PROXIMITY
ARRESTS -- REALLY?
IN AMERICA, THERE ARE PROXIMITY ARRESTS?
SOME OF WHOM WERE JOURNALISTS COVERING THE PROTESTS.
BECAUSE OF THE 200 PEOPLE ARRESTED, THEY DIDN'T ASK FOR A
WARRANT OF THEIR NAMES, THEY SAID NO, GIVE ME A WARRANT FOR
1.3 MILLION AMERICANS, ANYONE WHO WENT TO THIS WEBSITE TO
PROTEST DONALD TRUMP.
GIVE ME ALL THEIR INFORMATION.
ARE YOU
INSANE?
A WARRANT IS SUPPOSED TO BE VERY SPECIFIC, AND HERE YOU
HAVE EVERY REASON TO BE ABLE TO GIVE A SPECIFIC WARRANT.
YOU
HAVE THE 200 NAMES.
NO, THEY DIDN'T ASK FOR THE 200 NAMES,
THEY ASKED FOR THE 1.3 MILLION NAMES.
THEY WANT THEM FOR A
DIFFERENT REASON.
HELL NO.
THANK GOD FOR THIS COMPANY, DREAM
HOST, THAT'S FIGHTING AGAINST THIS.
EVERY DECENT LAWYER IN
AMERICA SHOULD SAY NOT ON OUR WATCH, THEY SHOULD OVERTURN
THIS AND UNDER NO CIRCUMSTANCES SHOULD THEY GIVE THIS
INFORMATION.
ONE LAWYER WORKING ON THIS CASE REPRESENTING DREAM HOST
SAID THE FOLLOWING, I WANT TO LEAVE YOU WITH HIS QUOTE BECAUSE
I THINK IT'S RIGHT ON THE MONEY.
HE SAYS --
THEY WANT TO KNOW WHAT THESE PEOPLE ARE SIMPLY LOOKING AT,
AND WHAT THEY ARE PLANNING ON USING THAT INFORMATION FOR, I
MEAN, I THINK WE CAN GUESS.
NOW WE ARE TALKING ABOUT POLITICAL DISSIDENTS IN AMERICA.
THIS IS WHAT WE'VE COME TO.
