Full article: Civil asset forfeiture

A 2017 a handbook was leaked which advised ICE members on Civil asset forfeiture.[1]

Mass surveillance

Full article: Rated 3/5 Mass surveillance

The US deep state is using ICE to roll out Mass surveillance technology.

Number plate recognition

In January 2018, the ICE was officially permitted to agency-wide access to a nationwide license plate recognition database. The system gave the agency access to billions of license plate records and new powers of real-time location tracking, raising concerns from civil liberties.[2]

Hidden CCTV

In 2018 US government documents revealed that the ICE was hiding CCTV cameras in ordinary roadside objects such as street lights.[3]

Minimum Prisoner levels

Ghita Schwartz, Senior Staff Attorney for CCR, said, in releasing the report: “Almost all guaranteed minimums [of prisoners] are found in facilities that contract with private prison companies, and ICE [Immigration and Customs Enforcement] actively collaborates with these companies to keep details of their contracts secret.”[4]
