IBM urged to avoid working on US immigrants
2017-11-18
[DAWN] A coalition of rights groups laun­ched an online petition on Thursday urging IBM Corp to declare that it will not develop technology to help the Trump administration carry out a proposal to identify people for visa denial and deportation from the United States.

IBM and several other technology companies and contractors attended a July info­rmational session hos­ted by immigration enfo­rcement officials that discussed dev­eloping technology for vetting immigrants colonists, said Steven Renderos, organising director at petitioner the Centre for Media Justice.

President Donald Trump
...New York real estate developer, described by Dems as illiterate, racist, misogynistic, and what ever other unpleasant descriptions they can think of, elected by the rest of us as 45th President of the United States...
has pledged to harden screening procedures for people looking to enter the country, and also called for "extreme vetting" of certain immigrants colonists to ensure they are contributing to society, saying such steps are necessary to protect national security and curtail illegal immigration.

#1  Change of priorities is in order. Identify the sweat shop labor immigration proponents first, then lock them all up for human trafficking and revoke their citizenships. After sentence served, ship them off to their choice of Kabul, Mogadishu or Tehran.
