So, if you were planning to or did attend a protest related to this year's inauguration and happened to stumble upon disruptj20.org, your information could potentially be handed over to the DOJ.

"That information could be used to identify any individuals who used this site to exercise and express political speech protected under the Constitution's First Amendment," DreamHost says. "That should be enough to set alarm bells off in anyone's mind."

Sounds similar to the Trump administration's idiotic "voter integrity commission". Do they honestly believe that they can punish people for exercising their constitutional right to protest? Jesus H. Christ, that's absolutely f'n ridiculous. Good on Dreamhost for challenging this bull***t.

I'm assuming this is Trump trying desperately to prove that more people would have shown up to his inauguration if there hadn't been so many protesters. And like the petulant child that he is, he wants some kind of revenge on said protesters.
