ICEBlock App Explodes in Popularity After Attorney General Criticism
2025-07-03
ICEBlock, an iPhone app allowing anonymous reporting of ICE agent sightings, has skyrocketed in Apple's US App Store rankings. Ironically, criticism from Florida Attorney General Pam Bondi fueled its viral ascent. The app, primarily used in Los Angeles where ICE raids are frequent, saw a massive surge in downloads following Bondi's comments. Users can report ICE sightings within a 5-mile radius; the app sends notifications and, importantly, doesn't collect user data, a fact confirmed by TechCrunch's network traffic analysis.
