A grassroots network of apps, text threads and forums are sharing real-time ICE location data. The Trump administration says that’s illegal, Alex Woodward reports

The CNN article talks a bit more about privacy issues. This bit caught my eye:

It’s only available on iOS because Aaron says the app would have to collect information that could ultimately put users at risk to provide the same experience on Android.

I would like to see some details about this. Perhaps there’s a way to work around that problem, even if it meant publishing on F-Droid instead of Google Play.

    What you’re doing is white-knighting for the gestapo. That’s weird.

    Quit trying ‘to be fair’ towards thugs who absolutely give zero shits about being fair to you.

    To be clear: I’m not saying you aren’t factually correct. I’m saying that, in the Thunderdome of public sentiment, that sort of comment comes across as excusing fascism and that’s why people are rightfully getting pissed off at you for making it.
