News
Welcome to the News community!
Rules:
1. Be civil
Attack the argument, not the person. No racism/sexism/bigotry. Good faith argumentation only. This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban. Do not respond to rule-breaking content; report it and move on.
2. All posts should contain a source (url) that is as reliable and unbiased as possible and must only contain one link.
Obvious biased sources will be removed at the mods’ discretion. Supporting links can be added in comments or posted separately but not to the post body. Sources may be checked for reliability using Wikipedia, MBFC, AdFontes, GroundNews, etc.
3. No bots, spam or self-promotion.
Only approved bots, which follow the guidelines for bots set by the instance, are allowed.
4. Post titles should be the same as the article used as source. Clickbait titles may be removed.
Posts which titles don’t match the source may be removed. If the site changed their headline, we may ask you to update the post title. Clickbait titles use hyperbolic language and do not accurately describe the article content. When necessary, post titles may be edited, clearly marked with [brackets], but may never be used to editorialize or comment on the content.
5. Only recent news is allowed.
Posts must be news from the most recent 30 days.
6. All posts must be news articles.
No opinion pieces, Listicles, editorials, videos, blogs, press releases, or celebrity gossip will be allowed. All posts will be judged on a case-by-case basis. Mods may use discretion to pre-approve videos or press releases from highly credible sources that provide unique, newsworthy content not available or possible in another format.
7. No duplicate posts.
If an article has already been posted, it will be removed. Different articles reporting on the same subject are permitted. If the post that matches your post is very old, we refer you to rule 5.
8. Misinformation is prohibited.
Misinformation / propaganda is strictly prohibited. Any comment or post containing or linking to misinformation will be removed. If you feel that your post has been removed in error, credible sources must be provided.
9. No link shorteners or news aggregators.
All posts must link to original article sources. You may include archival links in the post description. News aggregators such as Yahoo, Google, Hacker News, etc. should be avoided in favor of the original source link. Newswire services such as AP, Reuters, or AFP, are frequently republished and may be shared from other credible sources.
10. Don't copy entire article in your post body
For copyright reasons, you are not allowed to copy an entire article into your post body. This is an instance wide rule, that is strictly enforced in this community.

Are they just emailing these to everyone in the global address list?
The "exotic" names are probably getting auto-blasted. It feels exactly that stupid.
Like Lisa Anderson and Tom Frantz.
Well obviously those specific examples are probably radical left antifa terrorists (/s)
They probably have tattoos 😡
doge probably whipped up a garbage AI tool in a hackathon weekend
You give them too much credit. More like, type to an LLM:
"Hey ai, here is an mbox file full of e-mail from people. Find all the names and make a table of names and email addresses." uploads file
"Hey muskrat, we got the list of people to deport!"
Judging by how the people in power seem to like badly implementing ideas from cautionary sci-fi books, here's my guess:
They're probably using a point system. If you have an immigration hearing, a million points. If they find your name on a visa (not even necessarily you), that's 20 points. If they find your name on an arrest record, that's 10 points. If they find your name on any immigration court records, that's 10 points
Then they sort the list, send ICE after people with the highest scores, and are slowly emailing their way down the list to anyone with like 50 points or more
and apparently, if you're an attorney or staffer at a non-profit that assists migrants and immigrants in court.. ten bazillion trillion mega points.
this guy isn't the only one being targeted.
I know the logical sequence of events is probably the attorney being an informed contact as a representative having their details caught up in a crude, talentless scrape and the axiom about incompetence over malice but i realllly think this is a case of ¿Por qué no los dos?
An immigration lawyer in MA also was told to leave the country. She assumed it was a mistake meant for one of her clients.
It might have been a mistake, but it was for her.
an idiotic point system was reported by NYT, so, confirmed.
Mango Mussolini's dream team is using "AI" to do all their decisions and data processing, and they're too fucking dumb (and don't give a shit) to realize that it constantly makes mistakes and can't be trusted for shit. Their jobs are "easier" because of it, the outcomes don't affect them anyway since they live in an alternate reality bubble, and they can claim they're "doing something" while really just having taxpayers pay them to golf.

Off topic, is there a way on Lemmy to link to a specific comment/post so I could still remain on my instance?
For exempt this opens web browser to lemmy.world, I'm on lemmy.ee and would still want to stay within the app on my own instance.
Edit: this time on topic. Yeah, they very likely are using LLM for decisions. Same thing happened with those ridiculous tariffs. I can't believe they are this dumb to believe LLM is anything more than a fancy chat bot and isn't actually thinking.
This is client dependent. I use Thunder, the sharing option lets you choose between the community's instance for the share link, or the instance hosting your account.
When opening links to other instances I believe you can use search on your own instance, paste the URL to open it on your local instance
I also use thunder, and that page just opens a browser for me.
What I was hoping is that there would be some kind of syntax where I could reference comment or post, and Lemmy server would automatically translate that to the local URL.
To do that you must first make sure it's opened via your instance so it has it cached.
