Comment on ICE Has a $2M Contract for Spyware That Can Hack Phones Without a Clickparent

Comments

They're suggesting[1] they'll be attempting arrests at polling locations, which due to the statistics on fraudulent votes(statistically microscopic), equates to interference and intimidation since we know ICE isn't beyond arresting US citizens to harass them. This will have a chilling effect on citizens who are remotely non-white, who may avoid voting in person due to the risks associated with interacting with the under-trained ICE forces.

Additionally, USPS's current plans[2] for purging mail-in votes will disenfranchise the other method of voting.
