Hi Peter - do you have any specific thoughts for people posting about immigration scenarios here, to help keep themselves safe? Given that it was recently revealed that ICE is monitoring these comments.[0][1]

Everyone has to weigh the pros and cons for themselves but I think that being well-informed is the best defense so to speak, that is, to know what one's rights are and what the law is, so I think these open forums play an important role.

It is absolutely wild that people are posting about the ways that they have broken the letter of immigration law on here using their regular accounts and identifiable IP addresses.

Serious question, does anyone actually care about immigration law at this point? Because on the surface it doesn't seem to matter if you followed the law exactly or you completely ignored it if you're someone targeted by ICE. They seem to find their target and then work backwards on how to deport them. Is anyone who wouldn't normally be in the sights of an ICE agent getting targeted by some HN comment?

Why are they monitoring Zillow...

[haiku2077]

Zillow has rental management services - i.e. there are people who pay their rent though zillow.com

because securing housing is a big part of residing somewhere?
