ICE's Stingray Use Continues, While AI Surveillance System Falters

Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) continues to utilize Stingray technology to track undocumented immigrants, raising privacy concerns. A recently unsealed warrant reveals ICE's use of a cell-site simulator in Utah to locate a fugitive. Meanwhile, a $12 million AI surveillance system, Sherlock, intended to streamline police work, has reportedly shown slow progress and failed to deliver expected results. Further adding to surveillance concerns, ICE also signed a nearly $10 million contract with Clearview AI for facial recognition. These events highlight the reliance of law enforcement on surveillance technology and the resulting ethical and privacy implications.
