Donald Trump: There is no dearth of illegal immigrants who cross the border of superpower America in the hope of a better future and settle in America. It is estimated that more than ten million people have entered America. Even though there is exploitation at the workplace, even though the salary is low, but the standard of living in America is good and income is high compared to other countries, illegal immigration continues in that country for years.
Black Trumpet for Intruders
Donald Trump has been demanding the deportation of illegal immigrants in the US. After becoming the US President for the first time in 2016, he also made significant efforts in this direction. He also built a high wall on the Mexican border, from where the largest number of intruders come, and implemented strict enforcement.
Now, with Trump leading the presidential race in the 2024 election, his name has once again raised fear of intruders. People fear that with the use of modern technology and AI, illegal residents will be caught and sent back to where they came from.
What techniques and tools to use?
Systems of 'surveillance' and 'AI-powered data collection' already exist in the US. This can be used to target illegal immigrants in the US. ICE (Immigration and Customs Enforcement) agents can track intruders using smart algorithms and data brokers. The number plates of their vehicles and cameras installed in public places can identify them through 'facial recognition' of their faces. The US has high-tech equipment that can track even the smallest purchase bills paid by citizens. Now, since AI has entered this field like every other field, any citizen can be 'hidden' through it. Applications made for permanent residence in the US will be used to find out who has entered illegally.
Any stomach intruders?
Being a democratic country, America has freedom of expression, right to demand rights. There are also humanitarian organizations fighting on behalf of illegal immigrants. Due to the strong opposition of such organizations, the US government cannot take a more strict stand against illegal immigrants. Such organizations often argue that America is made up of immigrants, so you cannot deport anyone. Such organizations keep pressuring private companies that keep citizens' data not to make the data available to the government.
They fear that…
Organizations working for human rights fear that Trump, who does not listen to anyone, took tough decisions in the name of national interest during his previous presidential term, so if he comes back to power, this time he will take decisions faster than ever. There will be no delay in deporting undocumented people from America. Organizations have already started saying that Trump will violate the privacy rights of American citizens and misuse all kinds of data, which will lead to the death of illegal immigrants. By misusing data brokers, surveillance equipment, AI and smart algorithms, Trump will deport millions of people through manpower, money and logistics. Since technology is now more advanced than in 2016, it is feared that Trump's 'deportation armies' will use it this time.
this fear is not misplaced
In the last decade, the number of people deported from the US has increased from 60,000 to 200,000. From 2017 to 2021, the Trump regime took a tough stance on immigration. The Trump administration made it especially difficult for Muslims to enter the US. His tough stance at the border led to family breakdown. He gave ICE agents the power to deport without any judicial process. For all these reasons, a large section of America wants Trump not to come to power.
Who Cannot be deported?
Even people who entered the United States as children and those who have lived in the United States all their lives as adults are at risk of deportation. Of course, a child who entered the United States under the age of two cannot be deported. Also, an immigrant married to a US citizen cannot be deported.
