Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) is surveying the commercial advertising technology market for tools capable of supplying location data and large-scale analytics to federal investigators, according to a recent Request for Information (RFI).

Framed as market research rather than a procurement, the RFI seeks information from companies offering “Ad Tech compliant and location data services” that could support criminal, civil, and administrative investigations across ICE’s mission set.

GPS is receive only, there’s no way to track you for using GPS, it’s only when you look up the coordinates that your device calculates that you could be identified.

Can always use one of those fully offline old Garmin car GPS maps too.
