'Surveillance of domestic communication, to include surveillance of all social media platforms, is now the primary mission of DHS.' Facebook has been spying on the private messages and data of American users and reporting them to the FBI if they express anti-government or anti-authority sentiments — or question the 2020 election — according to sources within the Department of Justice. Under the FBI collaboration operation, somebody at Facebook red-flagged these supposedly subversive private messages over the past 19 months and transmitted them in redacted form to the domestic terrorism operational unit at FBI headquarters in Washington, DC, without a subpoena. It was done outside the legal process and without probable cause,” alleged one of the sources, who spoke on condition of ­anonymity. Facebook provides the FBI with private conversations which are protected by the First Amendment without any subpoena. These private messages then have been farmed out as “leads” to FBI field offices around the country, which subsequently requested subpoenas from the partner US Attorney’s Office in their district to officially obtain the private conversations that Facebook already had shown them.
