An analysis by WIRED this week found that #ICE and #CBP’s face recognition app #MobileFortify, which is being used to identify people across the United States, isn’t actually designed to verify who people are and was only approved for #DHS use by relaxing some of the agency’s own privacy rules.
The face-recognition app #MobileFortify, now used by US agents in towns and cities across the US, is not designed to reliably identify people in the streets and was deployed without the scrutiny that has historically governed the rollout of technologies that impact people’s privacy, according ...

We Have Been Harmonized: Life in China's Surveillance State by Kai Strittmatter with Ruth Martin (Translator) 368 pages • hardcover • first pub 2018 "China’s new drive for repression is being underpinned by unprecedented advances in technology: facial and voice recognition, GPS tracking, supercomputer databases, intercepted cell phone conversations, the monitoring of app use, and millions of high-resolution security cameras make it nearly impossible for a Chinese citizen to hide anything from authorities. Commercial transactions, including food deliveries and online purchases, are fed into vast databases, along with everything from biometric information to social media activities to methods of birth control."

One thing more people need to be aware of is the False Positive Paradox.
If you have an app that can identify people with 97.6% accuracy, that's pretty good right?
No! When looking for a small sample in a large enough population, it's *really* bad.

#MobileFortify > evidence of American citizenship :
« I repeated, "I’m a citizen. I have an ID."
The agent kept saying, "That don’t matter, that don’t matter."
The officer also kept telling me that they were going to take me in if I did not let them scan my face. »
New legislation would sharply limit ICE's facial recognition app, Mobile Fortify.

#ICE snaps photo, & within seconds knows whether that person has a deportation order or at least, whether an algorithm thinks they do. The tool, called #MobileFortify, went live in June 2025, and it searches more than 200 million photographs stored in federal db. No warrant required.

Sure hope #MobileFortify doesn't have any bugs or vulnerabilities.
That would be a shame.
