In a post-Bush and Obama world, it is more important than ever before that information once protected by privacy laws and Constitutional safeguards is now kept at arm’s length from any state department’s grip because of an insatiable information-hungry government that can’t seem to scoop up enough data on we, the People.
The Immigration & Customs Enforcement (ICE) wing of the Department of Justice (DOJ) appears to be taking a page right out of the playbook of the Obama State Department as it seeks to bully both Google and Apple into turning over the names of more than 10,000 users of its gun scope app known as Obsidian 4.
