The Trump administration is moving to begin collecting DNA samples
from hundreds of thousands of people
The new rules would allow the government to collect DNA from children,
as well as those who seek asylum at legal ports of entry and have not
broken the law. They warned that United States citizens, who are
sometimes accidentally booked into immigration custody, could also be
forced to hand over their private genetic information.
And unlike the testing under the pilot program, the results would be
shared with other law enforcement agencies.

The surveillance tools have been installed in schools and public
housing, deployed on roads and public transit, and worn by police
officers. They've been developed by an array of technology firms
competing for government business. And many are now owned by a company
seeking to grab a bigger piece of a booming market. Motorola, a brand
typically associated with cellphones and police radios, has joined the
race among tech firms to deliver new ways of monitoring the public.
Since 2017, the Chicago-based tech company -- now known as Motorola
Solutions, after Motorola spun off its mobile phone business -- has
invested $1.7 billion to support or acquire companies that build
police body cameras; train cameras to spot certain faces or behavior;
sift through video for suspicious people; and track the movement of
cars by their license plates.
By consolidating these tools within a single corporation, and
potentially combining them into a single product, Motorola Solutions
is boosting its stature in the surveillance industry -- and amplifying
concerns about the government's growing power to watch people almost
anywhere they go. "Your privacy is more protected when information
about you is scattered among agencies and entities. When all that is
unified under one roof, that sharpens the privacy issues," said Jay
Stanley, a senior policy analyst for the American Civil Liberties
Union, where he researches technology's impact on privacy. "I don't
know exactly what kind of synergies a company like Motorola Solutions
might get from assembling all these pieces, but in general it's a
scary prospect."
