Court allows social media surveillance lawsuit against Trump administration

Original: Victory! Court Rejects Government Effort to Dismiss # SocialMedia # Surveillance Lawsuit Judge Allows Social Media Surve

A federal judge in New York has rejected a government effort to dismiss a lawsuit challenging social media surveillance by the Trump administration. The case was filed by three labor unions against the Departments of State and other agencies, and will now move forward in court. Civil liberties and privacy advocates are welcoming the ruling as a win for government transparency and accountability.

Why now: A court ruling allowing a surveillance lawsuit against the Trump administration to proceed has major implications for privacy and free speech debates.
