Summary
ICE has made its first public request for information on how commercial Big Data and Ad Tech providers can support investigations, potentially accessing data like social media use, purchases, and web browsing to target immigrants. An AI-advertising CEO warns this expansion of surveillance through the digital advertising ecosystem is alarming and may be difficult to stop due to fear of political retribution.
