The new tool, called Mobile Fortify, uses the CBP system which ordinarily takes photos of people when they enter or exit the U.S., according to internal ICE emails viewed by 404 Media. Now ICE is using it in the field.

    I’m sure this is completely accurate technology and isn’t racist in any way. /S

    Boy, it sure would be annoying if someone started to flood their tip line with fake reports. I’d hate to think of the wasted time they’d have to dedicate investigating each of these claims.

    Bear in mind what AOC told us about the “Big Beautiful Bill”. ICE now has a bigger budget than the FBI, DEA and Bureau of Prisons combined. After they zip-tie you and throw you in the van they can light their Cuban cigars with $100 bills.

    I predict it being ubiquitous one day, where everyone has the ability to id others. It’s already a thing in los Angeles. Also, I was just reading about how a person’s gait can be used to identify someone, so wearing a mask won’t be enough. Technology is just gonna get better.

      Try reading my gait when I’m on an escooter/bike/whatever and recognising my face from behind a full face helmet. (I’m just being safe.)

    Wear Juggalo make up. Doubt they are using depth perception. Since that data would probably not be available.

    time for every immigrant to change style, grow a beard/shave it, change hair cut. start using makeup.

    question, would that work?

    What would happen if these people started those bleaching tablets, like MJ used…
