How Hackers Are Fighting Back Against ICE
"ICE has been invading U.S. cities, targeting, surveilling , assaulting , and people who are undocumented immigrants. They also have targeted people with work permits , asylum seekers , permanent residents (people holding "green cards"), naturalized citizens , and even citizens by birth. ICE has spent hundreds of millions of dollars on surveillance technology to spy on anyone - and potentially everyone-in the United States."
"The OUI-SPY runs on a cheap Arduino compatible chip called an ESP-32. There are multiple programs available for loading on the chip, such as "Flock You," which allows people to detect Flock cameras and "Sky-Spy" to detect overhead drones. There's also "BLE Detect," which detects various Bluetooth signals including ones from Axon, Meta's Ray-Bans that secretly record you , and more."

ICE has spent hundreds of millions of dollars on surveillance technology to spy on anyone and potentially everyone in the United States. A few enterprising hackers have started counter-surveillance projects to protect communities using technology. Flock operates many automated license plate reader and camera systems contracted by municipalities and often accessible to ICE. The OUI-SPY is an open-source, low-cost device that runs on an ESP-32 and can detect Flock cameras, overhead drones, Bluetooth signals, and specific devices for mapping and fox-hunting.
