ICE memo outlines plan to deport migrants to countries where they are not citizens
Federal immigration officers may deport immigrants with as little as six hours’ notice to countries other than their own -- even if officials have not provided any assurances that the new arrivals will be safe from persecution or torture, a top official said in a memo this week.

Todd M. Lyons, the acting director of U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement, wrote in a memo to the ICE workforce We…

ICE memo outlines plan to deport migrants to countries where they are not citizens
The dramatic shift in policy could result in thousands of immigrants being deported to places where they lack family ties or even a common language.

After stabilizing around 2000-2005, atmospheric concentrations of greenhouse gas methane started to rise again, accelerating until a few years ago.
At least the increase seems to be slowing down since 2021.

"Despite good-faith efforts by DSI [dense street imagery] providers to protect individual privacy through blurring faces and license plates, these measures fail to address broader privacy concerns. In this work, we find that increased data density and advancements in artificial intelligence enable harmful group membership inferences from supposedly anonymized data."

Privacy of Groups in Dense Street Imagery
Spatially and temporally dense street imagery (DSI) datasets have grown unbounded. In 2024, individual companies possessed around 3 trillion unique images of public streets. DSI data streams are only set to grow as companies like Lyft and Waymo use DSI to train autonomous vehicle algorithms and analyze collisions. Academic researchers leverage DSI to explore novel approaches to urban analysis. Despite good-faith efforts by DSI providers to protect individual privacy through blurring faces and l…

There has been an increase of arrests by U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement since Trump began his second term,
with reports of raids across the country.
-- Yet the majority of people currently detained by ICE have no criminal convictions.
Of those who do, relatively few have been convicted of high-level crimes
— a stark contrast to the chilling nightmare Trump describes to support his border security agenda.
“There’s a deep disconnect between the rhetoric …

Trump says he's deporting 'worst of the worst.' Data tells a different story
President Donald Trump has pledged to target "the worst of the worst" as he moves to deport millions of people from the U.S. But government data contradicts this narrative. As of June 29, 71.7% of people detained by ICE had no criminal convictions, and only a small fraction were classified as high-level threats. Research has consistently shown that immigrants, including those who have entered the country illegally, are less likely to be incarcerated than native-born citizens and that immigratio…
