ICE to Buy Tool that Tracks Locations of Hundreds of Millions of Phones Every Day

This is also one of like, dozens of things where: - a horrifying thing happens / was identified, people outraged - biden admin made a rule to end that thing or kill the contract for said thing - congress did nothing to protect against it in an enduring way - trump admin re-enables horrifying thing
