flag U.S. Border Patrol uses secret surveillance tech to track millions of drivers nationwide, raising privacy and civil liberty concerns.

flag The U.S. Border Patrol is running a covert, nationwide surveillance program that uses license plate readers and algorithmic profiling to track millions of drivers far from the border, flagging “suspicious” travel patterns and triggering stops and searches. flag Cameras are now deployed more than 120 miles inland in cities like Phoenix, Chicago, and Detroit, drawing on data from federal, local, and private sources—including the DEA and facial recognition tools. flag Backed by billions in federal funding and often shielded from court scrutiny, the system has raised major concerns about privacy, civil liberties, and the agency’s shift toward domestic policing.
