TL;DR Summary
A 67-year-old retiree says Homeland Security investigators arrived at his home and issued an administrative subpoena hours after he emailed a federal prosecutor criticizing a deportation case, highlighting DHS’s use of broad, oversight-light subpoenas that civil-liberties groups warn could chill speech. Google notified him of a data-requisition tied to the case, though the agency reportedly did not obtain his information, and DHS describes the subpoenas as part of a criminal investigation.
