Lawmakers are publicly pressuring tech giants Google and Apple to immediately remove apps that allow users to track federal immigration agents. The bipartisan effort warns that these companies are actively risking the safety of Homeland Security personnel. These tracking apps are being used by criminal networks and anti-ICE agitators to evade arrest.
The lawmakers sent a stern letter demanding that Google and Apple outline their actions to remove the dangerous software. They warned that the tech companies risk “jeopardizing the safety of DHS personnel.”
Federal agents, including ICE and Border Patrol, are already facing escalating violence from anti-law enforcement activists. This surveillance software is used to coordinate resistance and attacks against officers.
The demand for removal is critical to restoring law and order in our cities. Tech giants must choose between enabling criminal activity and protecting the safety of America’s federal agents.
The Trump administration has already moved to eliminate these threats. Attorney General Pam Bondi previously opened an inquiry into the apps, confirming that the Justice Department views the software as aiding criminal evasion.
This effort confirms that Big Tech companies must be held accountable for the content they host. They cannot hide behind platform neutrality while actively endangering law enforcement officers on the front lines.
