You do not need to be undocumented to land on ICE’s radar anymore. You just need to know someone who is. Or post something they do not like. Or even just open a text message. Maybe you just so happened to pass through a place where their network of systems are set in place. That could be a protest, a courthouse, or even at a traffic stop. Surveillance

The most shocking videos in the world!

It could’ve happened many different ways.

Your phone may have connected to one of the fake cell towers they’ve set up. Or maybe you were caught on a traffic camera, or in the background of a photo on social media scanned by AI. Or maybe a DHS agent wearing METAs video-recording sunglasses took one looked at you for just one second.

 

Important below:

You might be living in one of America’s deathzones and not have a clue about it
What if that were you? What would YOU do?

In the next few minutes, I’m going to show you the U.S. Nuclear Target map, where you’ll find out if you’re living in one of America’s Deathzones.

Or ICE just intentionally scanned your face in with Mobile Fortify — an app on their cellphones. Or Palantir’s ImmigrationOS which also has that capability.

But it doesn’t matter how it happened. It doesn’t matter if you didn’t do anything illegal, or that you are a U.S. citizen. Your face, your personal information, and your digital footprint have already been captured, scanned, and stored by ICE before you could ever say no. Added to decades of information they’ve linked together.

The truth is, they probably already know more about you than you think. I can’t imagine the kind of lists I’m on, or what my file looks like. So, I want to preface this by saying I don’t want you to read this to be afraid. I want you to read to understand that the data is already collected going back years, the file already exists, and fear is the tool they’re counting on. But you still have power.

Do not comply with authoritarianism in advance just because you’re afraid of being flagged or watched. The truth is they’ve already been watching all of us for a long time.

Once you understand that, the next question is. . . what exactly are they building with all of this? What are these systems for, and how far do they reach? And who is behind all this?

This article is long. But I really suggest you stick around if you can. Because once you understand how deep this goes, you realize it’s not about immigration at all.

They don’t just know who you are. They know who you’re connected to, what you posted, what your face looks like from five different angles, what neighborhood you live in, what kind of car that you drive, where your social media profiles are, where your GPS pings, where your IP address pings, what kind of benefits you’ve received from the state, and even what brand of cereal you buy.

This is not an exaggeration. I have receipts. Highlighted or underlined words in this piece are source links. I encourage you to fact check everything I am saying in this article because I wouldn’t of believed it if I didn’t see it myself, either.

So, on paper, ICE & CBP were created to enforce immigration law. They were even supposed to help people with immigrating into America. That was the premise, at least.

But over the last decade (and especially this year with the extensive amount of DHS funding given to them in the “Big Beautiful Bill”) they’ve been handed the contracts, the software, the money, and permission to create a domestic surveillance infrastructure of Americans with almost no limits. And seemingly no accountability.

ICE, CBP, and HSI all operate under the umbrella of DHS. The Department of Homeland Security. And, in my research, I found layers upon layers of publicly available ICE, CBP, & DHS surveillance contracts. Some dated back to as the early as the birth of the agency itself in 2002 following the fall of the towers in 2001. It feels as if the NSA, CIA, and DoD had a ‘baby,’ and that baby is named DHS.

These services include but aren’t limited to the use of: Palantir, Oracle, Amazon Web Services, Zignal Labs, SOS International LLC (SOSi), L3Harris, SocialNet, Locate X, Mobile Fortify, Paragon, Clearview AI, Carahsoft Technology, LexisNexis, Thompson Reuters, and way, way more. This is not even the tip of iceberg.

The Network of Watchers

---

• Palantir connects all your data into one big government file. Oracle helps store and manage that data.

• Amazon Web Services (AWS) hosts the systems that keep it all running. They’re infamous for hosting spyware.

• Zignal Labs uses artificial intelligence (AI) to scan social media to find migrants, and flags posts they think are negative against ICE.

• SOSi tracks where people are and who they know creating a diagram of a person, their family, and their contacts.

• L3Harris makes fake cell towers called Stingrays that trick your phone into giving up data.

• SocialNet maps your online connections using your posts and profiles.

• Locate X sells your phone’s location history to the government.

• Mobile Fortify and ImmigrationOS allows ICE agents scan your face on the street to run against their database, and to collect more information.

• META provides video and audio recording tech through devices like their Ray-Ban smartglasses, which ICE agents have been seen wearing during operations.

• Paragon makes spyware called Graphite that can break into your phone without you ever clicking a link.

• Clearview AI collects faces and turns them into a searchable database. They’re using it to find people who “assault agents.”

• Carahsoft sells these surveillance tools to DHS and other agencies.

• Thomson Reuters and LexisNexis sell our personal, legal, and financial records to ICE, including addresses, shopping data, court records, family ties, and utility bill data.

  • There’s a bill — The Fourth Amendment Is Not For Sale Act — that was introduced to prevent the government from using this very data. It would kill this entire network, but it’s been sitting in the House for a very long time untouched. Hmm, I wonder why that is?

And yet, somehow, there are even more. Some haven’t even been uncovered yet. Some are being hidden by our own government.

Right now, 404 Media is suing ICE for ignoring a FOIA request that asked a simple question: who signed the brand new contracts to staff the two buildings set to monitor your social media next year?

ICE plans to run this out of two sites — one in Williston, Vermont, and one in Santa Ana, California. Vermont will operate during the day. California will run 24/7.

You know, these are the contractors that ICE wants to monitor Facebook, Instagram, Threads, TikTok, Google, YouTube, LinkedIn, Twitter, PACER Court Records, the dark web, somehow even MySpace.

Yes — MySpace — the now defunct social media platform that was bought years ago. Is Tom still in your top 10?

 

And of course, ICE won’t say who they hired. So they’re being sued. And keep in mind, this will be additional. It’s added on top of the several AI systems that are already doing it now. And this is all being paid for with our tax dollars.
