omg u wont believe whats goin down with meta 
so theyre blockin links to this website thats tryin to expose ice agents i mean i get it maybe its a lil sketchy but dont u think its also kinda cool that ppl r tryin 2 hold these agents accountable? 
the thing is, who gets to decide whats "cool" and whos not? 
and btw, what happened to free speech online? shouldn't we b able 2 share info no matter how controversilal it is?

Omg this is getting super shady lol Meta just stepped in like a big ol' thorn in the side of people trying to fight back against ICE agents 
. I get that they wanna protect their users from sharing sensitive info but c'mon Meta you're not gonna help these ppl by silencing them 
. Can't believe the Trump admin is putting pressure on tech companies like this, soooo not cool

Can't believe the Trump admin is putting pressure on tech companies like this, soooo not cool omg, this is getting outta hand like whats next? are we gonna lose access to info altogether? i get that meta's gotta follow their policies but come on, the ice list is just trying to hold people in power accountable 
and now they're blocking it? that's not right at all i'm still using facebook and instagram despite this, but if more ppl start losing access to info online then we're in trouble

I mean I get why Meta is trying to protect people's info but blocking links to a site that's all about holding ICE agents accountable? It just feels like they're being used as a pawn in a much bigger game. 
I'm all for protecting people's privacy, but not when it means silencing dissenting voices. What if this sets a precedent for other groups who are trying to speak out against injustices? 
We need more transparency and less corporate finger-pointing at the government.
