US EditionBondi says Facebook has removed page targeting ICE agents after DOJ outreach
- On Tuesday, U.S. Attorney General Pam Bondi revealed Department of Justice outreach prompted Facebook to remove a group allegedly used to dox and target ICE agents in the Chicago area.
- After earlier removals, Bondi pressured Apple to take down the ICEBlock app weeks ago amid the Trump administration's claim that sharing ICE sightings is illegal 'doxing'.
- Bondi wrote that "Today following outreach from the Justice Department, Facebook removed a large group page that was being used to dox and target ICE agents in Chicago," and a Meta spokesperson said it violated policies against coordinated harm and outing undercover personnel.
- Legal experts countered that First Amendment protections cover ICE sightings discussion, while NPR reporting found no public evidence proving a spike in attacks cited by officials.
- Bondi vowed that the DOJ will continue engaging tech companies to eliminate platforms where radicals can incite imminent violence against federal law enforcement.
