Trump administration attempts to take down leak of ICE personnel data

The US Department of Homeland Security (DHS) asked Icelandic hosting company FlokiNET to take down a site containing information on more than 40,000 employees across its agencies, including ICE and Customs and Border Protection. A letter sent on the DHS’s behalf by cybersecurity firm ZeroFox described the dataset as “stolen” and warned that it put identifiable people at risk of harassment, stalking and physical harm. FlokiNET refused to remove the material, citing the public interest in knowing who carries out enforcement work, but the registrar suspended the icepi.cx domain; the information later moved to another domain. Distributed Denial of Secrets first published the database on Wednesday.

Gehgeh, a financial expert and social media personality, warned activist VeryDarkMan that his new power bank and power station business could make him benefit from Nigeria’s electricity problems. He spoke after a 40-foot container reportedly filled with the products arrived and argued that VeryDarkMan should instead have entered construction, where his followers might have helped him secure government contracts. Gehgeh said improved electricity supply could hurt sales of the devices. He advised VeryDarkMan to sell them to businessman B-Lord and return to activism and online policing.
