Empricorn@feddit.nlto Technology@lemmy.world•ICEBlock climbs to the top of the App Store charts after officials slam itEnglish7·22 hours agoThink about that for a second. Immigration and Customs Enforcement by definition involves at least one border and 2 countries. Even if they only went after American citizens (which they’re trying to do), they’d be deporting you somewhere else.
As it is, I suspect a significant number of at-risk people in the US and their advocates use Android.
Empricorn@feddit.nlto A Boring Dystopia@lemmy.world•Attorney General: ‘Everyone is Welcome Here’ sign cannot be displayed in Idaho schoolsEnglish5·22 hours agoYes… That’s the point. It’s neutral, positive, inclusive, accepting. And that’s counter to a political viewpoint (not party) that doesn’t accept everyone.

Empricorn@feddit.nlto Technology@lemmy.world•ICEBlock climbs to the top of the App Store charts after officials slam itEnglish512·1 day agoGlad others have pointed this out. Their “reasons” for not supporting 70% of worldwide smartphones via Android seemed very suspect.
Empricorn@feddit.nlto A Boring Dystopia@lemmy.world•Attorney General: ‘Everyone is Welcome Here’ sign cannot be displayed in Idaho schoolsEnglish11·1 day agoIt’s against one. Just like they demonize “Antifa”.
What’s a “ground bloomer”?

Empricorn@feddit.nlto News@lemmy.world•MAGA mom was taken by ICE, but her husband refuses to stop flying Trump flag: ‘We understand what he’s doing’English311·1 day agoMAGA is a mental illness. It flies in the face of all logic, is more important than friends and family, is above the law, relies on cult-like devotion, and is always right, even when proven wrong.
Empricorn@feddit.nlto No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•Is it morally wrong for an immigrant or naturalized citizen to "keep a low profile" and avoid speaking up against the government in order to minimize the risks of denaturalization/deportation?English81·2 days agoI’m not saying it’s a “stupid question”, but I don’t understand it. How and why could it possibly be considered “wrong” or even a moral issue at all to keep a low profile?? Saying/doing nothing is our natural state, no one can say it’s bad to just neutrally exist! Don’t let anyone tell you you have to speak up, especially if it endangers or harms yourself or your friends and family.
If you’re referring to the current US administration, they’re not acting lawfully and are currently trying to arrest or deport legally-protected people and even citizens! You don’t owe them or anyone else anything, certainly not at the expense of you or your family! When you’re acting defensively and protecting yourself, it’s not immoral. This is how hostile to immigrants we’ve become that you are even asking this question… ☹️
TL;DR: Absolutely not. You do you, and be safe!
No idea how or when I started doing it this way, but I can’t change now!

Empricorn@feddit.nlto News@lemmy.world•Meet ICEblock: The app that lets residents know when immigration agents are in their communityEnglish211·18 hours agoRegarding the Android version:
https://www.iceblock.app/android
TL,DR: “It’s difficult, so we’ll hide behind privacy excuses rather than helping the largest number of at-risk people.”
Seriously, if VPN companies and every other company that handles sensitive data anonymously can do it, so can these developers. When 70% of the worldwide smartphone user base uses Android, an iOS-only app is just not good enough anymore.
