| The Stop ICE Raids Alert Network let's you send and receive mobile alerts about nearby ICE activity whenever, and wherever it occurs.No downloadable app required. StopICE works with technology already built into your phone. Send and receive mobile alerts via text message, or at stopice.net from any mobile device with a tap of a button. Adjust your notification settings at any time to receive alerts within a certain mile radius of your neighborhood. Alerts are crowd-sourced by the public. This means alerts are sent directly by people from their communities. Stop ICE alerts is also integrated with Signal Messenger via the stopicenet signal bot. Click here to find your local signal group or join the general signal group for alerts. Don't have signal? Click here to subscribe to alerts via text message. Do you track users GPS details? Stopice.net does not collect GPS location details from users. Stopice.net calculates polar coordinate distances between zip codes to determin the broader area(s) of where alerts are sent and received. Each alert is sent anonymously. Users can utilize a "location assist" function to automatically find their nearest street name or zip code. This assist function is optional and cannot be used without user approval. How do you store user data? StopICE limits the amount of information a user can provide when signing up. User details such as phone # and email are encrypted. StopICE does not collect personal details such as name, addresses, or browser history. Due to Google cooperating with DHS administrative subpoenas to voluntarily hand over data on their users, we no longer accept new accounts that use Gmail for their notifications preferences. For better email privacy we recommened using Protonmail.com. StopICE doesn't read or share browser cookie data to or from any third parties or devices and doesn't integrate authentication tokens with third party authentication schemes. Was Stopice.net subpoenaed by DHS? No. In Sept 2025 The Department of Homeland Security sent a subpoena to Meta for information identifying the owner of the stopicenet Instagram account (even though this information is already public.) Our attorneys with CLDC filed a motion in federal court to block the subpoena. A federal judge granted that temporary order prohibiting DHS from requesting any information on the @stopicenet Instagram account. DHS withdrew and vacated the case. We held our ground and DHS backed off. What if someone else gains access to my stopice.net password and logs into my account? What will they see? If someone else logs into your stopice.net account, the only information that is visible are the public alerts associated with your zip code. For security purposes, you cannot view or change a phone number or associated email address on your account. These details remain locked and encrypted on a separate server. Personal details such as names and addresses are not stored on our servers, nor do we request this information. If you receive a message requesting this information or claiming to provide this information on behalf of stopice.net, it is fake. Please contact us. All alerts on stopice.net are sent anonymously and there is no way to contact the original sender. Why isn't there a downloadable app? We suspected service providers to be compelled by the Trump Administration to remove apps that notify the public about ICE activity. Even though this is a gross violation of the First Amendment, we do not trust big tech service providers to hold their ground. In Oct 2025 , the DOJ sent letters to Apple and Google requesting that they remove "ICE tracking apps" from their app store. As a result, these service providers quickly and voluntarily complied and every single app that notified the public about ICE activity was removed. This is why Stopice.net was designed as a mobile web app and text alert network designed to function with technology already built into every phone. Is this service illegal? No. You have a constitutional right to photograph, videotape and document the activity of any law enforcement agency in public. This includes police, federal agents, and whoever these immigration enforcement agents running around in masks claim to be. Reporting, documenting, photographing, videotaping any law enforcement officer or law enforcement activity in plainly visible public spaces is protected under the First Amendment of the US Constitution. StopICE exists in the interest of free speech, transparency and public reporting. ACLU: You Have The Right to Record Law Enforcement Officers User Opperational Security Remember, the opperational security of any platform is only as good as the security practices of the end-user. This means if a platform 100% secure, it is never 100% immune user negligence or error that can result in your personal information being leaked. Never share private information unintended for unvetted contacts, when sharing photos always double check and crop out details that might reveal personal or private information.

Crowdsourcing involves a large group of dispersed participants contributing information or feedback rather than relying a smaller or traditional team.
| Crowdsourcing encourages transparency and horizontalism whenever information is disseminated, accessed, checked, redistributed and acted upon. Integrating crowdsourcing models into various grass-roots concepts for community organizing not only gives us an advantage with accessing and sharing information, but also how we can act on it together.
