Border Patrol agents in Chicago are using facial recognition technology on the street to verify citizenship, stopping young men on bikes and scanning their faces when they don't have ID. The practice, documented in social media videos, has been described by experts as 'pure dystopian creep' and raises concerns about civil liberties and surveillance overreach by immigration enforcement agencies.
