White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt was asked about this earlier today during her press briefing.
CNN is promoting an early warning system for cell phone users that alerts them to Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) activity. In response, DHS Secretary Kristi Noem said, “This sure looks like obstruction of justice. Our brave ICE law enforcement face a 500% increase in assaults against them. If you obstruct or assault our law enforcement, we will hunt you down and you will be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law.”
.
Apparently the Apple and Google stores have authorized the ICE Block app to be downloaded from their services.
There are a lot of vested financial interests in the human trafficking and illegal alien business. This ICE Block app, is part of the system that perpetuates the exploitation and criminal illegal activity. Given the nature of the national security interests involved, one has to wonder how this type of technology does not run afoul of the law.
UPDATE: As noted, there could be positives. Download the App., and if you encounter a long checkout line at WalMart, Home Depot, DMV or Post Office etc., activate the ICE alert and watch what happens.
Hey, if the powers that be can debank people who purchase firearms, which is protected by 2a, surely one can completely debank cnn and apple for interfering with federal law enforcement.
I would, figuratively speaking, crack their heads with a legal baseball bat with a big ole grin.
They screwed up. They made a mistake. Exploit it!
As I am sure you’re aware the banks will never cut off anyone or anything promoting the lucrative business of human trafficking. A nice hypothetical point regardless.
Sadly, you are correct.
download the app and make false reports. we could easily overwhelm it. join me! i’ve mad 5 reports so far
Excellent! Force them to play by their own rules, just like their found Alinsky stated!
I didn’t find it on the Google store. I wonder if they pulled it or if I got the name wrong.
Not finding it either on Google Play Store. Lots of games with ICE or Ice block(s) which are like Crush but with cubes.
An old memory….Back in the day of my correctional health care career…the ERT, Emergency Response Team, was called “Orange Crush”….that was before orange jumpsuits became all the rage…
I wonder if those posting ‘mistaken’ alerts, if you will….can get into legal trouble? I mean, it would have to be a mistake as no proper and law abiding citizen would ever use it to clear Walmart, right?
When I looked on the Apple app store they changed ICEBlock to ICE block and it showed lots of games. But it also said, “Did you want ICEBlock?” and when I hit that it gave me the app CNN was reporting on.
ICEBlock
It is an Apple-only app since anonymity can’t be guaranteed on Android per the developer (https://www.iceblock.app/). Kind of bummed since this would be entertaining.
I couldn’t find it on Google play either.
It is Apple only, for now. I need to get an Apple device. Be right back…
I should be able bring it up on my 7th Gen iPod Touch.
Considering a large percentage of the cell phones illegals use were free from the Demented Fraud administration, maybe it’s time to void the cell service to every one of those phones. Or better yet, advertise “Free Cell Phone Upgrade” to all illegals then grab every one of them that shows up and immediately deport them. Thanks for playing.
NSA probably could tell you where every single one of those devices was to the inch from the date they were originally activated. But they will not.
Those satellites in space can read your mailbox number…so yes, you are right.
Satellites are redundant when the tech that you use everyday collects data on wherever you go and whatever you do.
The Internet of things integration into everything will only make for a finer net to sift with.
Enter Space Force…..
I like your way of thinking!!!!
💯
And regain your spaces and have no illegals around.
Tons of reasons to do it.
Buy an ICE jacket and wear it everywhere.
“Buy an ICE jacket and wear it everywhere.” LOL!
What makes you think that by downloading and using that app, you won’t be tracked by the Trump DOJ and possibly arrested for obstruction of justice? They’d have you dead to rights, not just guessing like Biden’s DOJ did to the J6 attendees…\
I’d steer far far clear of that app.
It’s bait.
You have to use the Democrat strategies against the Democrats just like they use them against us!
The “Cloward-Piven” strategy is based on over-whelming the “system” with demand to cause it to break down.
They have used it coupled with the principles found in “Rules for Radicals” with great success since Obama.
Folks serious about understanding current and future political animosity need to get familiar with these, so they know what strategy the opposition is trying to employ.
Download and OVERLOAD…cry “wolf” over and over and over…
🙂
You are now officially on the homeland security list of active participants in tipping off ice raids. I hope you look good in orange.
I like that idea of using the app if stuck in a long checkout line. I was also wondering if ICE could use this to send out false flags, keep the idiot protestors scrambling around their cities. Who knows there might be an ICE raid at Google or Apple headquarters. That said I don’t see how the app is legal since its only purpose is to interfere with law enforcement. Was wondering why the government does not take the app down and make Apple and Google pull it from their app store.
Use it to herd them toward where they are.
We are in a insurrection in this country, with the MSM aligning itself brazenly with the Deep State and other Satanic forces.
It is inconceivable to me how anyone can deny it.
It’s inconceivable to me that we allow it .
The Second Amendment is a responsibility, not only a right.
Amen to that. Satan can do noting without man puppets. 🤣
I’ll bet that if they started arresting the talking heads who read the news for being accessories to hindering law enforcement, this would stop in less than three minutes. The CNN cutie who goes to jail for it will never, as in NEVER read another line that explains how to avoid ICE actions while broadcasting. I guarantee it!
But…but…that’s not who we are/s
Yes it it.
CNN should have its broadcast license revoked for aiding and abetting.
What license would that be?
FCC license.
Show me the license – we have the internet, and the FCC is on the internet …
Nope, over the air channels have a licence to broadcast, not cable news channels or other cable channels.
The one they need to send a signal up to a satellite and back again.
Sure
That’s fine … they are aiding and abetting criminal illegals in contravening our immigration laws … so in a perfect world, I’d suggest the FCC PULL CNN’s BROADCAST LICENSE, effective immediately and UFN …. or too “harsh” ??? Then alternatively, notify CNN their license will NOT be renewed when the time comes, pending further investigation.
While the FCC has rarely revoked licenses, it has done so in cases of obscene or indecent speech, character qualifications of owners, and ILLEGAL CONDUCT (caps for emphasis).
“They” … and I’m referring to the entire Mafia-like DC Swamp Crime Cartel, their MSM enablers, on all levels … “they” ONLY have the power we let them have …
And in that same spirit … Bada Bing Bada Boom!!
re: “I’d suggest the FCC PULL CNN’s BROADCAST LICENSE”
Look it up. The FCC is on the web … (Hint: You won’t find it.)
I have no idea what you’re talking about … but FWIW:
https://www.fcc.gov/
What are CNN’s call letters (i.e. ‘Broadcast license’)? Can’t find them (the call letters), can you?
Do you know WHY? CNN is a cable network, not a terrestrial broadcaster, LIKE your local over-the-air TV station.
Making sense now?
Seems like the app is for iOS only.
I can’t find it in play store. If I do I will report that ICE is everywhere I go.
@Sundance,
“Download the App., and if you encounter a long checkout line at WalMart, Home Depot, DMV or Post Office etc., Activate the ICE alert and watch what happens.”
ROTFL.
Absolutely love it, also the idea of throwing out bogus alerts. Have to see if that can be done remotely, as I live in a relatively smaller city, so not too high on the ICE target list, but there are bigger cities nearby!
There is always a congo line at the Home Depot near me, hmmm.
It’s the Mexican hat dance where our Home Depot is.
What a slave labor scam this whole illegal immigrant crap has been over the past 30 years. What a terrible chapter in our history. God Bless ICE God bless President Trump. God Bless America.
Threats and more threats …nothing from Noem Bobdi or FBI…huge joke.
Our DOJ and FBI are a big joke .
Lawless generation that sees no violation or wrong-doing in breaking laws……..just personal” opposition”……
Who is actually putting the fear of punishment for them to stop their lawlessness? I never see any lawmen upholding the laws. All I see is shields and pepper spray. Waste of money-my bleeping money!
And just today I saw CNN promoting its Fourth of July celebrations. This story explains my viserceral reaction to that ad.
And this is protection to freedom of the press how? people need to download and use it any time their out. Like the boy that cries wolf, after a while it will be ignored.
ICE could actually use the app to their advantage. If ICE were to set up outside a targeted business and trigger the app, all the illegals would come running out, right into the agents hands. Beats searching the place. 😂😂😂😂
CNN aiding and abetting human trafficking. Aren’t they chic and trendy. I’d like to see Tom Homan grab Jake Tapper, that gas bag.
Fake Yapper.
It seems to me that these U.S. Agents all have broken trigger fingers. Same with the LAPD last month. WTF are you clowns afraid of? Where were the LAPD clowns when these wet backs were burning their police cars? Do the job that you are getting paid to do.
Mr. President, don’t waste the Marines mission for street theater. Marines have one mission-kill enemies of the Constitution. Just to let you know we Marines are not happy about that joke show in Los Angeles.
Do you understand what civilian control of LE means?
Who does LAPD report to? That’s who tells them what their job is.
Los Angeles’ political leaders are unquestionably against the Constitution, therefore they are America’s enemy. The LAPD knows it and did not enforce the law that they swore to uphold. Wars are not won with shyster lawyer logic.
You patriotic citizens need to wake up that we are at war with American hating illegal aliens and foreign gangsters. They want us enslaved and dead.
I object to the term ‘wetbacks’. Just had to say that. These are human beings and at least they have a job. Better than those into violent drug trafficking.
You got to be kidding me. In a war every enemy has a derogatory moniker. That’s the way it always will be.
Not kidding. It’s unnecessary. The problem is fixed with law and order and common sense not racial slurs.
You’re aware that President Eisenhower actually had a large deportation operation called “Operation Wetback”? 1954
The raids in LA were about dealing with companies collaborating with transnational gangs. Catching illegals was secondary. It’s a war out there. The war is with the cartels.
Wars are fought with bullets. There are no “secondary” targets in any war. We are at war now with illegal aliens. If you don’t realize it, you are not needed.
There is more than one way to fight and win a war. Bullets are the last resort.
I suggest that you should pay more attention to the migrant/refugee/transnational cartel problem on your side of the border… among other things. You are no position to lecture us.
The update above is a good one!! It might be an idea for ICE to have the app, and, for example, go to a Walmart parking lot, set off the warning, and then catch all the people fleeing out of the store.
Better yet, everyone should download the app, and on Election Day when you go to vote, set off the alert.
App website:
https://www.iceblock.app
Apple appstore link:
https://apps.apple.com/us/app/iceblock/id6741939020
…- The app is *NOT* on the Google/Android store because the dev was against them hosting it since they collect and store user IDs from whoever downloads it.
…- Couple of articles about the app with interviews with the dev, Joshua Aaron:
https://tribuneonlineng.com/us-developer-launches-iceblock-app-to-help-immigrants-avoid-ice-raids
(Published Today)
“ICEBlock already has more than 20,000 users. Many are in Los Angeles, where large-scale ICE operations have triggered protests.
The app acts as an “early warning system,” Aaron explained. Users drop a pin on a map to report sightings of ICE agents.
They can include optional notes — like what officers were wearing or the type of car they were driving.
Other users within five miles get a push alert.
Aaron said he hopes the app helps people avoid encounters with ICE — but insists it’s not meant to interfere with law enforcement.
“Please note that the use of this app is for information and notification purposes only,” the app warns. “It is not to be used for the purposes of inciting violence or interfering with law enforcement.”
The app collects no personal data, Aaron said. Users are completely anonymous.
“We don’t want anybody’s device ID, IP address, location,” he said. “We don’t want anything being discoverable.”
“This is 100% anonymous and free for anybody who wants to use it.””
https://slate.com/technology/2025/05/iceblock-app-ice-resistance-immigration-crackdown-deportations.html
(Published April 16th)
“That’s why another platform, called ICEBlock, is hoping to bypass those issues through ample security and automation. Joshua Aaron, a longtime software engineer and former bassist for the famed Napster-era power-pop band the Rosenbergs, is single-handedly coding and funding the app, symbolized on Apple’s App Store with an illustrated logo featuring a melting ice cube. It’s an atypical program in many ways: It’s available for download only on the iPhone, it does not require a formal account or cost any money, it purports to collect no user information, and it offers no pixelated ads.
The basic thrust of the app lies in this limited functionality: With your iPhone’s location turned on, you can easily report the sighting of any ICE officers you spot within a 5-mile vicinity; if other app users are located within that radius and have their notifications turned on, they’ll receive a heads-up push about that spotting. (This is especially helpful in dense cities like New York.) There are no photo attachments or voice recordings involved here, and because the app offers no storage system, reported sightings disappear from ICEBlock after just four hours. To protect the system from abuses, users are not allowed to report sightings more than once every five minutes. The app is also available in 13 languages, including Arabic, Nepali, Spanish, and Vietnamese.”
…- Oddly enough, whilst Apple appstore lists the developer as ‘ALL U Chart, Inc.’, and a quick search on Bing throws up one company by that name, the company website appears to be a dummy/placeholder site, at least for now:
https://www.alluchart.com
According to this Dun & Bradstreet profile ALL U Chart, Inc. is based in Round Rock, Texas, with a ‘Joshua A Feinstein’ listed as President and key principal:
https://www.dnb.com/business-directory/company-profiles.all_u_chart_inc.678bd006bf559891c3ed08c66f4e9fbc.html
Finally, the company’s Linkedin page somewhat cryptically describes its business as ‘Centralized data management and reporting for your individual health awareness and status.’ and locates it within the Austin, TX Metropolitan Area:
https://www.linkedin.com/in/alluchart
…- In conclusion, and IMOSVHO, Mr Joshua Aaron/Feinstein, whatever, *Glows* brighter than the noon-day sun…
Former member of the band The Rosenbergs… Julius and Ethel?
“…if you encounter a long checkout line…”
I’ll never wait long for a table at Olive Garden again, and the time I DO spend will be a hoot watching them thin out.
Thanks Sundance!
Let’s just all download it and spam it until it becomes useless 😅
You mean we can pretend to be liberals? What fun!
Go after the creator/creators of the App and other similar first. Rule that phone and internet providers block these apps for subscribers. They can’t then get friends to get alerts for them. Void all the Free Phones services.
Boycott corportists using our taxpayer money to subsidize their illegal labor. Companies like Tyson Foods, Smithfield, JBS. When you hear a company getting busted for illegal labor or child labor, put it on your forever banned list. Vote out the crony DC Swamp dwellers they support with profits made on the backs of taxpayers.
” As noted, there could be positives. Download the App., and if you encounter a long checkout line at WalMart, Home Depot, DMV or Post Office etc., activate the ICE alert and watch what happens.”
BRILLIANT!
I would suggest EVERYONE download the app…
it will be great fun cruising around different locations and flipping on the lights…
after a while and many false positives, the app will become useless and ineffective…
NO MERCY!
“Block Ice” isn’t for Andriod, it is Iphone only since Android logs identifiable information. If you don’t see it in the app store, just Google and for me it was, of course, the top result.
Sundance, using the App to alert ICE is a great idea. Though where/when we do it in numbers; should not ICE have prior knowledge of who we are and that we won’t overwhelm their systems? Also, if for some bad luck for example, I get tracked for using it; would I be arrested just having it on my phone?
Not on the Apple app store anymore as far as I know.
“There are a lot of vested financial interests in the human trafficking and illegal alien business.”
We are beginning to get some insight into just how massive the illegal trafficking business is, by seeing who objects to even slowing it.
We had a moment of clarity when we connected up the massive amount of money spent on TV advertising promoting prescription drugs, and the complete lack of news stories on drugs, side effects, alternatives, or drug manufacturers generally, on TV news programs. I suspect there is about to be a similar, but truly offensive, moment of clarity regarding human trafficking, 300,000 missing children, NGOs spending billions of taxpayer dollars facilitating it, and ….. something else. Watch for it.
Wait until we find out all those tens of millions of illegal aliens simply cannot be accounted for. The math doesn’t work. Where did they all go?
Agree. It’s not going to be easy to unhook from illegal alien labor after years of it becoming so embedded. But it must be done. Hopefully in a rational controlled system that businesses can adjust to. In my opinion it should be replaced with systems that allow vetted workers to come in who must be paid at the going rate and return to their homeland after visa expired. The company foots the cost of travel. America is probably going to need a lot of workers. It just can’t be illegal. It must be controlled and based on America’s needs not the needs of other countries. No more slave labor. Pay what it costs to produce or do without.
The left is fighting so hard to keep them here because they know that the majority of them will vote democrat if given the opportunity.
It’s a ready made voting block that would allow them to continue trying to dismantle our republic.
They ALL need to get ran out of this country with extreme prejudice.
And they get counted in the census, so illegals don’t necessarily need to vote to get representation. CA, NY will get additional House seats with an equal decrease from some other states. Alabama lost two House seats that way.
Non – citizen counts should be excluded from the numbers used to determine congressional apportionment.
Which MSM branch was promoting “No Kings” merch?
Same song different verse.
Where can I get the IRS Block app?
Here is Arizona, Costco is as bad and sometimes worse than Walmart. I might have to give this a try, but I’d be afraid of the stampede it might cause…
Do it from your car in the parking lot and wait to go in.
Arrest the CEO of CNN for obstructing justice! I want this on camera so that other leftwing wackos in high places don’t follow suit. They think they are above the law. I hope they run CNN into the ground and jail those responsible before they flee the Country! Do everything in public view to humiliate these perpetrators !
2 AM raid on the reporter and her producer. Let them sit in the general prison population. No bail since they are flight risks.
I love your last idea! I think I will try it tomorrow. It will be fun to see everybody scramble.
It must’ve been taken down. Can’t find it 5:24 Central
https://apps.apple.com/us/app/iceblock/id6741939020
this is a link for ice block app for iphone….
and here are some of the reasons that illegals might not want to take the advice of the secret police spy state.
spoiler: call them what you want, but cross tie walkers are not stupid. they know certain things to be true.
https://www.reuters.com/world/americas/sinaloa-cartel-hacked-phones-surveillance-cameras-find-fbi-informants-doj-says-2025-06-27/
yes, it might seem unrelated to the “driven ambitions” of the illegal border crosser.
but they also are keenly aware they were also gimmicked by the Joe malarkey circus via mayorkASSHOLE who spent 154 million dollars of US *the people* tax money to create a “app” so that illegals could “register”.
again, cross tie walkers can be called many things, but stupid isn’t one of them. In some respect I truly do admire the courage and audacity. titanic awakes to the walking dead, kind of respect.
God Bless America, a land that I am proud and grateful to call my home.
God Bless America
“Cross-Tie Walker” is the title of a song written by John Fogerty of CCR that appears on the 1969 album, “Green River”. Fogerty invented the word and there is no record of it’s usage before. Fogerty claims “Cross-Tie Walkers” are hobos. I equate hobos with some degree of honor and illegal aliens as predatory thieves.
Holy Cats! This is no is so wrong.
Where ‘s Pam?
They don’t realize that by advertising this app, they’ve encouraged the Nationwide Communion of Trolls ™ to play around with this app. The amount of false alarms and panicking that this could be used for would be hilarious.
I wonder what Charles Askins would say if he was still alive today?
I read in one of his books that, back in the old El Paso Border Patrol days (with revolvers), the rule when confronted in an alley by the smugglers was “nobody gets shot twice till everyone’s been shot once.” There was no mincing words with him; he’d be busy.
A lot of good suggestions below and in SD post. One other thing to do is start the rumor that ICE actually wanted this developed to and it is a tool they are using to gather illegal’s information and location. That will kill the demand quickly.
We can use this against them. Download the app and randomly trigger ICE alerts throughout the day. If enough of us do it, the app will be constantly spammed with false alerts until people get fed up and uninstall it, or become conditioned to ignore it.
Trigger ICE alerts in affluent, liberal neighborhoods during the day. See how long the karens and kens can go without their landscaping, pool cleaning etc ….
The app is not showing in the Google app store. Checked under ice block and iceblock
It is not available for Android phones since Android logs data and usage information, iPhones do not.
There is a kayak put in set of stairs on the river in my city. On weekends the ramp is full of Latinos and they don’t understand us they will not move so we can launch our boat and don’t care. I was joking to a friend we should just shout ICE!
Now we can do it with an App clear the parking lot and the park stays a whole lot cleaner!!
Thanks for the idea Sundance!!
You can go old school and shout “La Migra”!
Thanks Sundance for the laugh in the last paragraph. Using the Ice Alert to make people run away , in store or other places. Maybe funny videos will be made with MAGA people doing it in creative ways. 🙂
I bet political app developers will think twice before allowing CNN to do a story on their app. It just got the word out to the other side and caused false data to flood the app. 🤣🤣🤣
VSGPDJT should demonstrate the use of a bunker buster bomb at CNN headquarters.
“As noted, there could be positives. Download the App., and if you encounter a long checkout line at WalMart, Home Depot, DMV or Post Office etc., activate the ICE alert and watch what happens.”
Best laugh of the day!!
MIght be useful at Christmas time……
Arrest them all including the CEO
Shut CNN DOWN
