From the article The DOJ told Newsweek: "For several weeks, the Department of Justice inquired into this former employee's activities and discovered she has a sizable interest in All U Chart, Inc., the company that holds the IP for ICEBlock.

Two comments about this bunch of BS: 1. I would guess that ICE agent isn't even in the top 20 most dangerous occupations in the US. 2. If knowing the location of law enforcement endangers their lives, why do the great majority of law enforcement officers wear distinctive uniforms and drive around in clearly marked vehicles?

Identifying and catalog law enforcement actors are not threats. Certainly, they feel threatened by the threat of current or future accountability, but that is their feeling. https://www.rcfp.org/reporters-recording-sections/right-to-r... https://www.aclu.org/know-your-rights/stopped-by-police

Happy for her. She can retire early with an excellent settlement or get another job she is passionate about without worrying about money. It's pretty despicable, but I think in the end it will turn out for the better.

    - ICEBlock is an app that illegal aliens use to evade capture
    - while endangering the lives of ICE officers 
    - by disclosing their location. 

    - This DOJ will not tolerate threats against law enforcement 
    or law enforcement officers."

    - ICEBlock is an app used by citizens who reasonably want to 
      1) be aware of what their government does
      2) provide the only known oversight of ICE agents
      3) avoid areas where risky, hostile militaristic patrols operate

    - The DOJ will not tolerate citizen empowerment that it does not
      expressly approve of.
    - This DOJ will disingenuously reframe any attempt at oversight
      of LEO as "a threat to law enforcement officers" and will freely
      deploy government resources as revenge against those citizens.
