replyDid the other administration put a "fake news" and "report to ICE" and grifting link to their own social network in their apps? I feel like you are perhaps papering over a whole lot of general shittiness of this app that didn't exist in less amateur previous administrations that at least tried to follow the norms.
They had a way in offical apps to report people for not masking or for standing too close to each other. In Massachusetts you could dial 211 and turn in your neighbor: https://www.boston.com/news/local-news/2020/10/06/massachuse...
replyYou can report anything.
replyThe only case they cite of an actual intervention resulting seems... entirely legit?
> An adult entertainment club lost its liquor license after a dancer and others were seen not wearing masks, the state said.
People call 911 for goofy things, too.
Did they break down your door or shoot your SO in the head for not wearing a mask?
replyIsn't that state based?
replyAlso I'd say the federal government's approach to ICE deportations is a little stronger than even the COVID measures.
