Summary
The FBI is investigating a surge of anonymous racist and offensive text messages targeting Latino, Black, and LGBTQ communities following last week’s election.
Messages have included threats of deportation, re-education camps, or being forced into plantation labor.
While no violence has resulted, the texts, sent via services like TextNow, have prompted collaboration between the FBI, DOJ Civil Rights Division, and local authorities.
Advocacy groups like LULAC and the NAACP condemned the harassment, citing it as a troubling resurgence of hate rhetoric emboldened by recent political developments.
Just so everyone is absolutely clear, AT&t, Verizon, etc, are 1000%
(If it)* Was not the sale of that information to unscrupulous parties, it was a lack of proper configurations and security measures to prevent that information from leaking.
