“It is a sign that people aren’t happy within the U.S. government, clearly. The shooting [of Good] was the last straw for many people," Dominick Skinner, ICE list founder, told The Beast.

Information included in the new leak includes around “1,800 on-the-ground agents and 150 supervisors. Early analysis by the organization suggests that around 80 per cent of the staff identified remain employed by DHS,” according to The Beast.

    On paper, there is a right to privacy in the US in places where a reasonable person would have an expectation to privacy, which is codified into law.

    The only place where everyone has an expectation to privacy (barring exigent circumstances) is bathrooms (porta-potties included), changing rooms, locker rooms, or anywhere else where people are expected to use the bathroom or change clothes.

    There is an expectation to privacy for individuals on their own private property. I can spy on you in my house, but you can’t spy on me in my house (peeping through someone’s windows is a crime but me having a hidden camera in my living room is not).

    However, when it comes to public officials conducting duties of their office, there is no expectation of privacy, even on their private property (though, due to the conflict of interest, this is unlikely to happen).

    The only place where no one has any expectation to privacy is public property (like a park, post office, library, city bus, etc.) and private property which is open to the public (most businesses, malls, etc.).

    In practice, you can’t fart or jerk off without a corporation knowing about it.
