Documents show that ICE has gone back on its decision to not use location data remotely harvested from peoples' phones. The database is updated every day with billions of pieces of location data.

      It’s only terrifying if you are brown.

      Pixel 9 or earlier with GrapheneOS (ideally purchased unlocked without a carrier contract, so in-store or on ebay), sandboxed google play services, and ideally using FOSS apps as much as possible.

          eBay’s associated with used goods, but that’s a fair way to put it.
