So ICE is scraping the narcissist playgrounds to hunt migrants now. Par for the course in the surveillance state’s evolution — law enforcement cosplaying as keyboard warriors while violating what little remains of digital privacy.
The real kicker? Tech giants rolling out the red carpet for this dystopian collaboration. Data extraction as border enforcement. We’ve normalized corporate complicity in human suffering through layers of API access and sanitized policy jargon.
Watching governments weaponize platforms designed for vanity and outrage should surprise nobody. The algorithm feeds on fear either way — whether it’s manufactured viral rage or biometric tracking masquerading as national security. This isn’t about immigration. It’s about perfecting the digital panopticon where every like and follow becomes potential evidence.
