We should not stand idly as ICE and its corporate enablers are building a surveillance machine unparalleled in its power and reach. Just as Americans distrust ICE, we should distrust companies, such as Flock and Boston Dynamics, who are helping them.

In one instance, a male cleaning staff member repeatedly entered a women’s bathroom when he knew teenage girls were inside, naked and showering. In that instance, the girls’ mother submitted a grievance. But it was the girls who were the ones who paid for that complaint, as an official forced them to undergo a physical and mental examination.

A CoreCivic spokesperson failed to respond to an email seeking comment.
