Apple Retira App ICEBlock tras presiones del DOJ por riesgos a los agentes ICE; la aplicación alertaba migrantes de redadas
Apple retira app ICEBlock de su tienda tras demandas del DOJ, generando debate sobre seguridad de agentes y derechos de comunidades migrantes.
CALIFORNIA.- Apple retira la app ICEBlock de la App Store que alertaba migrantes del ICE ante presiones del Departamento de Justicia (DOJ) por riesgos a oficiales.
La aplicación permitía a usuarios reportar avistamientos de agentes migratorios.
Apple Retira App ICEBlock que alertaba migrantes del ICE
La App ICEBlock, lanzada en abril de 2025, alertaba sobre redadas en un radio de cinco millas.
Creada por Joshua Aaron, la aplicación superó un millón de descargas, por comunidades migrantes que buscaban evitar detenciones.
Presión del DOJ y reacción de Apple
La Fiscal General de Estados Unidos, Pam Bondi exigió la remoción de ICEBlock.
En una nota de NBC citan una declaratoria que Bondi hiciera a la cadena Fox Business:
“Hoy nos pusimos en contacto con Apple exigiendo que retiraran la app ICEBlock de su App Store — y Apple lo hizo”, citan a la funcionaria.
Retiran más aplicaciones similares a ICEBlock
La compañía envió un correo a Aaron explicando la decisión. “La App Store prioriza seguridad”, afirma Apple.
Apps similares, como ICE Immigration Alerts, también fueron eliminadas.
Google sigue el ejemplo, retirando apps de Play Store.
Apple Retira App ICEBlock tras incidente
Un incidente en septiembre en Dallas, Texas donde un atacante usó ICEBlock, aumentó las críticas contra esas aplicaciones.
ICE reporta un aumento del 1,000% en agresiones a oficiales.
Para qué usaban la App ICEBlock
ICEBlock era una herramienta clave para inmigrantes durante redadas masivas.
Usuarios con la app instalada aún pueden usarla, pero no recibirán actualizaciones, limitando su funcionalidad.
