I’ve been shopping for a new iPad to replace my aging iPad Air and the entire #iceBlock thing has turned me off from the whole idea.
I’d rather just keep using this one than reward them with *more* of my money.

Apple’s Freezing Out Another ICE Related App: DeICER
I’ve linked to coverage about Apple purging apps that are designed to help those looking to protect themselves from the Trump regime’s ICE actions including ICEBlock and Eyes Up. Add another one to the list, this time the app is called DeICER.
According to Pablo Manríquez of Migrant Insider, DeICER is a “civic-reporting app used to log immigration enforcement activity.”
Manríquez goes on to suggest that Apple effectively is treating federal immigration agents as a protected class of individuals. HIs article also includes an account of an interview with the app’s developer Rafel Concepcion over Apple pulling the app and the app’s intended purpose. It is worth a read.
In Chicago, these are dangerous and confusing times, even more so depending on who you are, what you look like and where you live. With a largely unhelpful media, it is challenging for anyone concerned to find accurate info or, as in the case of Eyes Up, preserve what they may have seen or recorded. Do note that recording info with smartphones is one of the methods of resistance Illinois and Chicago officials are encouraging citizens to perform in the face of these actions.
Even so, there are areas of Chicago wherein you would never know this kind of thing is happening. Local independent media is stepping up its game, but unfortunately doesn’t have the reach that large outlets do.
Apple isn’t alone in their cowardly actions. Google is also pulling apps of similar ilk. Both companies are referring to their respective App Store guidelines in their defense of their actions with Apple telling Concepcion,
Information provided to Apple by law enforcement shows that your app violates Guideline 1.1.1 … because its purpose is to provide location information about law enforcement officers that can be used to harm such officers individually or as a group.
These ICE enforcement actions want to project toughness in their aim to intimidate and harass, but by and large each of these maneuvers to hide what they are doing only serves to show how afraid those responsible for these actions actually are of the chaos, fear, and harm they are causing, regardless of the chest-thumping content they are creating on their raids.
The only ones who appear more afraid are Apple and the other big tech and media companies that keep going along to get along.
You can also find more of my writings on a variety of topics on Medium at this link, including in the publications Ellemeno and Rome. I can also be found on social media under my name as above.

#Apple #Banned an App That Simply #Archived Videos of #ICE #Abuses
Apple removed an app for preserving #TikToks , #Instagram reels, news reports, and #videos documenting abuses by ICE, 404 Media has learned. The app, called #EyesUp , differs from other banned apps such as #ICEBlock which were designed to report sightings of ICE officials in real-time to warn local communities.

Love this contrast from @mjtsai between what Apple has been doing about privacy versus how they’ve approached their App Store.
“Yet that’s what Apple’s done with app distribution. They designed a system with a kill switch, and now people are surprised and upset that they used it. The problem is not that they pressed the button this one time when you didn’t want them to. The problem is that there is a button and #Apple likes having it. They value it more than your right to use your own device as you see fit. They justify it by saying that the button is there for your protection.
[…]
If we were talking about #privacy, would you be satisfied with a secure golden key accompanied by an essay about when it would be OK to use it? Would you even take such a proposal seriously?”
