Is it legal to share the faces and names of ICE agents?
Can we just compile a massive database of every agent?
IANAL but probably not legal due to them having rights to their photos and you can be sure they will find some legal way to shut you down.
However an face recognition api trained with such photos might fly under the radar or even be legal.
If they're acting in a capacity for the government, they're public servants with no expectations of privacy. Also, if you're in public, there's no expectations of privacy as is.
Take their photos and film them. Let them know they're being watched and their actions will be scrutinized. Authoritarians are less likely to escalate if there's evidence and they think there will be some kind of consequences. And they just have to wonder if some Mario will go green some day.
