#ICE to Pay #ThomsonReuters $125 Million to Find ‘Voter Fraud’ The Department of #HomelandSecurity (#DHS ) plans to pay data broker giant Thomson #Reuters $125 million for access to its databases of personal data — which includes peoples’ names, addresses, #SocialSecurity numbers, ethnicity, #socialmedia posts, and #geolocation information — to help #Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) investigate what it describes as “voters fraud” and immigration fraud, according to procurement documents reviewed by 404 Media. The document says Thomson Reuters is able to let ICE continuously monitor millions of people and entities of interest. #ssn #privacy #voterfraud #voter #vote #elections https://www.404media.co/ice-to-pay-thomson-reuters-125-million-to-find-voter-fraud/
