Mexico is developing a cellphone app that will allow migrants to warn relatives and consulates if they think they are about to be detained by U.S. immigration officials.
This is so their relatives know that they’re being sucked into the US ICE void. It’s a precaution to try and help ensure people don’t “disappear” for good. There have been hundreds, if not thousands, of people becoming “mysteriously lost” after being detained by US authorities.
Databases made by the mexican goverment can be easily bought in certain places around the capital and other states, and they are constantly being leaked to the narcos so… Yeah, this can easily go south very fast.
Wouldn’t that just create a database of targets?

This isn’t a Trump/GOP-only problem, but the GOP seem hell bent to make it even worse, so Mexico is preparing for that.
Oh I believe their good intentions, I just worry about people with bad intentions abusing it.
Well, hopefully the NSA doesn’t spy on allied countries… oh wait…

Too late for that if you’re currently being detained.
Well yeah but now their relatives would also be on the list.
There is that, potentially.
I mean it’s by the Mexican government so it shouldn’t be available to the people targeting migrants in the US.
