"Apple takes down ICE tracking apps after pressure from Bondi DOJ"

 

 

Its the Good(LE) guys vs the Bad guys.  Its a win for Common sense & Safety First.

 

Ice Enforcement is experiencing 1000 % increase in Assaults( DHS reported  vehicles ramming agents, doxxing  targeting families, and outright violence directed at ICE & other Federal partners). With  that being said their mission is being hindered by far left radicals who want to protect & support criminal foreign nationals.

The Story is based on a fox business  & DHS report

Apple made similar claims in 2019 when it removed HKMap, an app that allowed Hong Kong protesters to trace the movements of law enforcement, with CEO Tim Cook telling employees that “over the past several days we received credible information, from the Hong Kong Cybersecurity and Technology Crime Bureau, as well as from users in Hong Kong, that the app was being used maliciously to target individual officers for violence and to victimize individuals and property where no police are present.”

 

At the time, lawmakers from both sides of the aisle spoke out against “Apple’s censorship of apps.” A letter signed by Sen. Ron Wyden (D-OR), Sen. Tom Cotton (R-AR), Sen. Marco Rubio (R-FL), Sen. Ted Cruz (R-TX), Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY), Rep. Mike Gallagher (R-WI), and Rep. Tom Malinowski (D-NJ) said, “Cases like these raise real concern about whether Apple and other large US corporate entities will bow to growing Chinese demands rather than lose access to a billion Chinese consumers.”

Email from Apple to ICEblock developer.

 

NB The email says people who have already downloaded the app will be able to continue using it, but they will be unable to re-download it from the App Store.

 The app had more than 1 million users prior to its removal, according to Aaron. The app was only available on Apple’s iOS, because Aaron previously said he would not be able to guarantee anonymity for users on Android.

Some true heroes.

Good ,taking away efforts to obstruct Federal  Ice Enforcement from doing their jobs.

Bad, creating & sponsoring efforts to thwart a democratically elected agenda involving deportation. 

 

Common Sense  wins by a long short .  

Dems threaten to  enact another scheme to track ICE Enforcement.

Apple just took a app off the market ,because it endangered  public safety.

There is no limits to the Dems obsession of  protecting non citizens &  vigilante style resistance. Federalism being attacked again . 

 

 

As noted before, the Apple action only deals with new downloads. ICEblock already downloaded to iPhone still works.

People  are gonna document incidents and report back to a former judge that Pritzger assigned to head up a accountability  commision on Federal Law Enforcement ,that has no subpoena power and won't be swearing in people. Mc is right another political stunt.

 

 "Pritzker said the commission will not have subpoena power but will instead invite people to appear".

"Tricia McLaughlin, the assistant Department of Homeland Security, accused Pritzker of continuing to “smear law enforcement who simply enforce the rule of law” to “remove violent criminals from Illinois because the governor refuses to do his job".
