Trump Admin's Massive Immigration Database Raises Privacy Fears

The Trump administration's Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE), in collaboration with Palantir, is building a massive database integrating sensitive data from various federal agencies to expedite immigration enforcement and deportations. This aims to create "target lists" for quick identification and removal of undocumented immigrants. However, the plan has sparked significant privacy concerns and legal challenges. Democratic lawmakers accuse DOGE of unlawfully exploiting Americans' personal data and question the database's accuracy and security. Former Homeland Security officials also express concerns about Palantir's capabilities, suggesting it might be insufficient for the complex logistical planning involved. The database's development is ongoing, and its future impact remains uncertain.
