Social Security Data Is Openly Being Shared With DHS to Target Immigrants

WIRED

For months, the Social Security Administration was quietly sharing sensitive data about immigrants with DHS. Last week, the Social Security Administration (SSA) quietly updated a public notice to reveal that the agency would be sharing "citizenship and immigration information" with the Department of Homeland Security (DHS). This data sharing was already happening: WIRED reported in April that the Trump administration had already started pooling sensitive data from across the government for the purpose of immigration enforcement. This public notice issued by SSA makes that official, months after the fact. The notice is known as a system of record notice (SORN), a document that outlines how an agency will share the data it has, with whom, and for what purpose. This notice is required under the Privacy Act of 1974.


The Most Dangerous Genre

The New Yorker

Our obsession with deadly game shows--from "The Running Man" and "Squid Game" to MrBeast's real-life reënactments--reflects a shift in the national mood to something increasingly zero-sum. It seems we can't get enough of game shows in which the losers die. "The Hunger Games" became a multibillion-dollar media franchise over the past decade, with audiences returning to the theatre, time and time again, to watch adolescents try to kill one another in an enormous arena--a contest devised by the leaders of a society rife with inequality. Netflix's " Squid Game " followed four hundred and fifty-six desperate individuals into an underworld where they play lethal versions of children's games in the hope of winning a life-changing amount of money. Four weeks after its release, the show had become Netflix's most-watched series ever; to date, the first season has been viewed more than two hundred and sixty-five million times.
