US Immigration and Customs Enforcement has asked technology companies to create a system that would track US visa holders in the US. This is reported by "Voice of America", with reference to the publication Pro publica.

Law enforcement officers are interested in algorithms that would assess the potential threat from visa holders, as well as monitor the behavior of people classified as high risk in social networks.

“Every year, millions of people arrive in the United States and later leave the United States, so we must take a balanced approach to the situation,” said Louis Rohde, deputy director of one of the programs of the US Immigration and Customs Enforcement Service.

It is reported that the US government is at the stage of collecting information from technical companies and has not yet passed to the creation of software that could cope with the tasks.

Representatives of the US Migration and Customs Enforcement Service told technology companies that they hope to receive automatic notifications about the activity of owners of American visas on social networks. The service is already tracking certain messages in social networks, but plans to expand this area of ​​activity.
