Google is hosting a CBP app that uses facial recognition to identify immigrants, while simultaneously removing apps that report the location of ICE officials because Google sees ICE as a vulnerable group. “It is time to choose sides; fascism or morality? Big tech has made their choice.”

Please! I can only boycott a company once. Stop giving me more reasons to boycott! It's redundant!

    Anybody who is not aware by now that Google is one of the most evil institutions on the face of the planet isn't going to be persuaded by yet another example, I'm pretty sure.

    You are probably right. Although I have seen a lot of people I'm my community become much more privacy aware and even hostile towards flock cameras when they couldn't care less a year ago.

    Eh. Possibly a fair point. I've got a hair trigger when it comes to spotting unethical corporate behaviour, and I'm always looking and waiting for the moral failure that seems inevitable when money enters the picture. Maybe I'm overestimating how much other people watch out for this.
