Trump's AI-Powered Surveillance State: A Techno-Dystopia Unleashed

Since Donald Trump's return to the White House, the US government has ramped up mass surveillance using AI, targeting immigrants, foreign nationals, and students. This involves unauthorized social media scanning, biometric data analysis, phone interception, and more, all without judicial oversight. Trump and Elon Musk, along with private sector players like Palantir and Anduril, are driving this expansion. Agencies such as DHS and ICE utilize tools like Babel X and SocialNet, collecting data from various sources including social media. The government even uses social media activity as grounds to deny asylum or citizenship. The Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) collects sensitive citizen data, feeding a new deportation platform. Experts warn of human rights violations and the expansion of this surveillance to Europe.
