I don't see the problem. It was an app specifically developed to help people evade American law and attack people who work for the government, how is it a shock that they took it down?

Apple maps tells you when you are near a cop on the highway in order to evade the law.

As does Google maps

Those should be removed too then. I don’t think they were nearly as effective as the ice block app was though. Every time I saw an alert in Waze there was nothing or it’s where they park an empty police car.

Or was the takedown designed to help ICE evade American law?

[Cabal]

Same. This app was specifically used to incite violence against law enforcement.

You need to be careful, the word "incite" does not mean what you think it does here.

Maybe the app enabled violence against law enforcement - but Waymo does that too by telling you where traffic cops are. Or Google Maps and Yellow Pages for documenting the location of police stations. Undercover officers, ICE or otherwise, aren't given any special exemptions to the law here.

ICE is not law enforcement.
