Apple Finally Does the Right Thing—Sort Of

Apple Finally Drops ICE-Tracking App After Trump DOJ Pushback

Well, well, well. After years of letting their platform host apps that practically gift-wrap information for illegal immigrants, Apple has finally removed ICEBlock, the so-called “tracking” app that warned people whenever Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents were nearby.

Let’s be real—this app should have never made it through Apple’s approval process to begin with. But after a nudge from Attorney General Pam Bondi and the Trump DOJ, Apple pulled the plug. Props where they’re due: they acted fairly quickly once pressure mounted. But the fact that it took political intervention to protect law enforcement is the real headline here.

Pam Bondi and the DOJ Put Safety First

Attorney General Pam Bondi wasn’t having it. She contacted Apple directly and demanded they remove ICEBlock, making it crystal clear that this wasn’t some harmless “safety app.”

Bondi said it was designed to put ICE agents at risk simply for doing their jobs, and she’s absolutely right. We’re talking about men and women risking their lives to enforce U.S. law, only to be hunted through push notifications like they’re fugitives.

Bondi’s move shows the kind of leadership we haven’t seen in years—cut through the excuses, put law enforcement first, and draw a red line against violence.
