ICE has been pilloried on social media about their "welfare checks" on Hispanics. Their 5 man SWAT teams have been augmented now with "Wifi jammers" that will shut down all Wifi connection within a 100 yard radius. The rise in wifi-enable Ring doorbell cameras have made for embarring moments on Instagram and TitKok, these will now largely disappear thanks to these jammers.

An immigration attorney publicized this when he noticed his wifi connection went out suddenly and ICE goons without a warrant attempted to question him about "suspected aiding and harboring of illegal immigrants and interfering with an ongoing ICE investigation". He told them he had a legal right to see whatever potential clients he wanted and to fuck off and die unless they had a warrant signed by a court (they didn't).

He went back to check his Ring Wifi footage to document the ICE encounter at his front door, and found that the connection was broken during the entirety of the ICE visit.
 
Make them wear body cams.
Every ICE agent in America was required to wear a body cam in the field effective May 2024.

In Feb 2025, ICE Fuhrer Tom Homan issued an emergency decree instructing field agents to turn off all body cameras IMMEDIATELY! NATIONAL SECURITY RISK!

The risk: some dingdong on Reddit created an iPhone app that will send you a text message whenever someone with an active body cam is within 100 yards of you. The app detect the exact spectrum that bodycams use to save-to-storage devices. 100 yards is dubious, that's a "best case scenario" (full line of sight, no obstacles in the way, no walls, etc). As anyone who has a bluetooth device controlling their TV, they get wonky roughly 40 feet away.

Given that most ICE agents are former LEOs who failed physical fitness exams and/or former mall cops, this "100 yard advantage" could give athletic Hispanics the distance needed to escape Trump's wrath.
 
I prefer wired ethernet connections. For security devices, I would prefer wired and wifi, with one camera somewhat obvious and a second hidden camera to watch the first camera sabotage.
