These subpoenas... (www.rawstory.com)

Hey all -

Just curious if anyone has seen a notice related to the news below. Reporting says hundreds sent out and that in most cases the tech companies have to notify the person and give time to contest it. So it would be good to get a clear example of these admin subpoena notices so we can all be on the lookout:

Or maybe this is some huge bullshit scare tactic.

Thank you!

it's tough because we need to get the word out to people to advertise events like No kings and share info on ICE, most ppl don't have the time between working 3 jobs and raising kids to properly research open source options. Those of us who know better have to reach out to those who don't using their medium.

I always use VPN at bare minimum so I'm not personally worried but I know a lot of ppl who are more into activism than tech privacy who I wanna keep informed.
