Vancouver tech firm Hootsuite provides services to U.S. Homeland Security
Hootsuite will provide social media management and sentiment analysis to DHS agencies including ICE and CBP under a contract worth up to US$2.8 million starting August 2024.
- Jan. 21, 2026: U.S. procurement records show Vancouver-based Hootsuite is providing social media services to the Department of Homeland Security, and a DHS release last year said it will 'only use' Hootsuite.
- After staff backlash in 2020, Tom Keiser, then CEO of Hootsuite, said the company axed an ICE contract; Hootsuite was founded in 2008 and employs about 1,000 people worldwide.
- The U.S. procurement posting lists Hootsuite and support services, with contracts valued at up to $2800K, starting August 2024 for two years, extendable to August 2029.
- The department said on Tuesday it has removed more than 670,000 'illegal aliens' and another two million have self-deported, providing enforcement context for DHS activities.
- The contracts emerged amid criticism that American immigration officers’ tactics fall under Homeland Security control, and Hootsuite did not immediately respond to a request for comment.
