I wouldn't consider consuming public Reddit posts "spying." The OSINT folks aren't technically spying but they're a lot closer to it than this.
How about through your window, visible from the street?
All public and visible information.
More specifically, the Border Patrol are spying on reddit users. Why are they creating these reports themselves and not relying on other agencies to investigate? Does border patrol have jurisdiction over all national security matters? >The spying is revealed in a January intelligence bulletin produced by the Border Patrol and leaked to me.

Would it surprise you - given the well-documented behavior of the Federally-supported ICE agents - that this "leak" was a strategic (insidious) move? We've seen this behavior before on numerous occasions across social media that it should not surprise any of us. Or am I reaching...?
[note: his account (/u/Budget-Chicken-2425) has been suspended. I don't know if it happened before or after the leak. This is important to know too.]
Perhaps this is another calculated move to intimidate American citizens from exercising their Constitutional rights under the First Amendment?
Speech, Press, Assembly, Petition (and religion).
And if so... the very Constitution is under attack when these protected rights are reframed as homeland threats. Would you consider this a valid position?

Not sure I would agree with the second statement, OSINT is spying, different mechanism but same intent.

Why not? I definitely consider cameras recording our every move in public to be spying/surveillance. It is one thing for a person to see something in public. Quite another to have automated systems recording and analyzing everything for all time.

If someone follows you around in public taking pictures of everything you in publicly-visible locations, are you being spied on? How about through your window, visible from the street? All public and visible information.
It’s not legal most likely.
Earlier quoted context omitted.
Huh. Why do they need to anticipate protests? Why can't they simply respect the right of the people to assemble and complain? The only thing that's alarmist is all of the actions performed by ICE.
Presumably being prepared for an incident will reduce the chance that due to surprise that incident will be handled incorrectly If you ask me, all US law enforcement are very trigger happy, but I always assumed it is a two-way street as in, more people in US are armed and try to shoot law enforcements than in other countries
