This sucks, and they shouldn’t have to do this, but could they make it a webapp?

Everything is objectionable.

Are we ready to admit that giving 3 companies the ability to decide what everyone can and can't execute on their devices is a massive international problem? This is probably the greatest threat to every country in the world, and the people of the US.

Oh no, our precious Apple is really a shit company. Tim Cook, is just like every other Tech CEO, a Liberal POS (or just straight republican).

They don't care about LGBQT+ or the enviornment. They care about money and how much they can make from stupid people.

I object to fuck-faced people who object to basic acts of decency, safety & freedom.

ICE is objectionable... did they got "confused"?

I get the outrage, I really do, but the app broke many privacy rights for users and also the app did technically break ToS by definition being a “doxxing” app.

Regardless, there are websites out there that do it far better than the app, and have universal access Apple and Android devices, which makes sense, because the developer of ICEBlock made it exclusive to Apple, and hispanic communities are overwhelmingly Android users.
