ICE using powerful spyware

NPR reports that Immigration and Customs Enforcement acknowledged that the agency is using spyware tools that can intercept encrypted messages as part of its efforts to disrupt fentanyl trafficking. Acting director Todd Lyons said in the letter that ICE uses various tools as part of its mission to disrupt and dismantle foreign terrorist organizations. His confirmation that the agency is using spyware comes as ICE intensifies its use of surveillance technologies to find people in the U.S. without authorization.
