Last year, he found a trove of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.zdnet.com\/article\/thousands-of-patients-data-leaks-telemarketers-bad-security\/\" target=\"_blank\">almost a million patients&#8217; data<\/a> leaking from a medical telemarketing firm. A recent find included <a href=\"https:\/\/www.zdnet.com\/article\/a-massive-cache-of-law-enforcement-personnel-data-has-leaked\/\" target=\"_blank\">an exposed cache of law enforcement data<\/a> by ALERRT, a Texas State University-based organization, which trains police and civilians against active shooters. The database, secured in March but reported last week, revealed that several police departments were under-resourced and unable to respond to active shooter situations.<\/p>\n<p>Homeland Security&#8217;s export control agency, Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE), served the subpoena to Twitter on April 24, demanding information about the data breach finder&#8217;s account.<\/p>\n<p>Twitter informed him of the subpoena, per <a href=\"https:\/\/help.twitter.com\/en\/rules-and-policies\/twitter-legal-faqs\" target=\"_blank\">its policy<\/a> on disclosing legal processes to its users. A legal effort to challenge the subpoena by a June 20 deadline was unsuccessful.<\/p>\n<p>Attorneys from the Electronic Frontier Foundation provided Flash Gordon legal assistance.<\/p>\n<section class=\"sharethrough-top\" data-component=\"medusaContentRecommendation\" data-medusa-content-recommendation-options=\"{&quot;promo&quot;:&quot;promo_ZD_recommendation_sharethrough_top_in_article_desktop&quot;,&quot;spot&quot;:&quot;dfp-in-article&quot;}\">\n<\/section>\n<p>ICE demanded Twitter turn over his screen name, address, phone number &#8212; and any other identifying information about the account, including credit cards on the account. The subpoena also demanded the account&#8217;s IP address history, member lists, and any complaints filed against the Twitter account.<\/p>\n<p>The subpoena did not demand the account&#8217;s private messages or any other content, which typically requires a court order or a search warrant.<\/p>\n<p>It&#8217;s not known why the subpoena was issued. Twitter spokesperson Emily Horne said the company does not comment on individual accounts for privacy and security reasons.<\/p>\n<p><span class=\"img aspect-set\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/zdnet3.cbsistatic.com\/hub\/i\/r\/2018\/07\/01\/49eec385-1a5b-413d-8992-1cd145783852\/resize\/770xauto\/fbaba1817e8356970900469adf2e47f3\/2psfwtun.jpg\" class=\"\" alt=\"\" height=\"auto\" width=\"770\"\/><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span class=\"caption\">ICE export enforcement subpoena. (Image: supplied)<\/span><\/p>\n<p>ICE has faced calls for it to shut down amid bipartisan pressure &#8212; and <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/bradheath\/status\/1012689958044422145\">complaints from within the agency<\/a> &#8212; over the recent incarcerations of child migrants and lawful asylum seekers. Although ICE&#8217;s public image is often viewed through a lens of detentions and deportations, a large part of the agency&#8217;s work includes fighting national security threats and fighting transnational crime, including prosecuting those who violate export laws.<\/p>\n<p>In a message, Flash Gordon said he believed that the subpoena may have related to the recent find of law enforcement data, but couldn&#8217;t be sure.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I don&#8217;t know what else [Homeland Security] would want from me,&#8221; he said.<\/p>\n<p>But serving an export enforcement subpoena &#8212; used in cases to investigate US export law violations &#8212; is almost unheard of in the case of a data breach involving private and personal information, according to one export controls attorney.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;As a general matter, the subpoena is likely to relate to the development or production of a controlled item, and not names, addresses, and contact information,&#8221; said the attorney in a phone call, who asked not to be named to avoid any conflicts with his work.<\/p>\n<p>The attorney said that if the subpoena related to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.zdnet.com\/article\/a-massive-cache-of-law-enforcement-personnel-data-has-leaked\/\" target=\"_blank\">the ALERRT breach<\/a> that this would be &#8220;a misuse&#8221; of the subpoena power, as the exposed personal data wouldn&#8217;t be an export control matter. He said that an export enforcement subpoena may relate to the posting of materials subject to export controls, such as military items, or technical information and schematics.<\/p>\n<p>A search of Flash Gordon&#8217;s several hundred tweets revealed nothing obvious that would justify the kind of subpoena served.<\/p>\n<p>The attorney said it&#8217;s &#8220;not clear how a Twitter account could even be relevant in an export control investigation,&#8221; calling the case a &#8220;head scratcher.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>The data breach finder said he&#8217;s been left without answers, and doesn&#8217;t know which offending tweets &#8212; if any &#8212; led to the legal process. As we covered last year, several prominent security researchers and data breach hunters <a href=\"https:\/\/www.zdnet.com\/article\/chilling-effect-lawsuits-threaten-security-research-need-it-most\/\" target=\"_blank\">spoke of a &#8220;chilling effect&#8221;<\/a> on their work.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Which sucks,&#8221; he said in a message, &#8220;because now I don&#8217;t know what I am allowed to post or talk about on Twitter.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>When reached, ICE spokesperson Matthew Bourke would not comment.<\/p>\n<div class=\"relatedContent alignNone\" readability=\"7.2083333333333\">\n<p class=\"title\"><a href=\"https:\/\/medium.com\/@zackwhittaker\/how-to-contact-me-securely-38dc5c5bc756\" data-omniture-track=\"moduleClick\" data-omniture-track-data=\"{&quot;moduleInfo&quot;: &quot;pinbox&quot;, &quot;pageType&quot;: &quot;article&quot;}\">Got a tip?<\/a><\/p>\n<p class=\"dek\">You can send tips securely over Signal and WhatsApp at 646-755\u20138849.
