ICE Taps Into Nationwide AI-Enabled Camera Network

  • On Tuesday, a report revealed that ICE uses AI-powered license plate readers from Flock Safety, employed by state and local police across over 5,000 U.S. Communities.
  • This access stems from collaborations under the 287 program and informal arrangements during the Trump and Biden administrations, with some uncertainty about formal contracts.
  • Law enforcement has made over 4,000 lookups related to immigration enforcement using this system, which lacks public oversight and raises concerns about expanded surveillance.
  • Experts like Jay Stanley and Albert Fox Cahn argue that this creates a ‘‘national system of data’’ that breaches promises made to undocumented residents and demands public discussion.
  • This situation suggests potential risks of unchecked federal use of local surveillance networks for immigration enforcement, which could extend to broader government purposes.
