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
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.

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.
Why are they expecting people to react to emails, anyway? If I got this in my email, I would assume it was just spam. A letter that comes by snail mail would get my attention, though.
Are legal notices regularly sent by email now?
It's calculated. They want the email to get ignored so that you "commit a crime" by staying in the country, giving them a "legitimate" excuse to deport you.
But I doubt that email can be considered sufficient notice in any court. In fact, now that it has been published, I wouldn't be surprised if it starts getting spammed everywhere just because.
Immigration courts have far less rights, even to citizens, it takes ages to appeal past it to a real court
The president claimed it would be impossible to extend due process rights — as required under the Fifth Amendment — to all of the immigrants he wants to deport.
“We cannot give everyone a trial, because to do so would take, without exaggeration, 200 years,” he wrote. “We would need hundreds of thousands of trials for the hundreds of thousands of Illegals we are sending out of the Country. Such a thing is not possible to do. What a ridiculous situation we are in.” Mango Mussolini
What I'm hearing is we should have tossed his ass in jail before any trials.
Doesn’t matter when they ignore the courts that rule against them.
They'll have you out of the country before you can even contact a lawyer or your family, let alone have a court hearing. Their legal justification is just to provide plausible deniability if it ever makes it to the news cycle.
No they are not. But these aren't legal notices.
I can't wait to use this to scare my MAGA neighbors. Thanks for the template.
Down the bottom, click to report as spam, ez
Very brass tacks for this kind of official legal document
is this not domestic terrorism?
having a non-western anglo saxon name is enough to get deported.
Everywhere is farther west than England if you start there and keep going west.
but not northern europe, mainly "british or german white"
That's what I never understood, Juan, Pablo, João, etc. are all white names lol
This is like the 4th, maybe 5th time this has happened. (They we've heard about)
They'll claim it's a mistake eventually I'm sure. But it's far past a pattern at this point
