If you're talking about have I been pwned, that site is actually legit. They have an API that compares hashes and stuff. I hope this app is legit too, it could save millions of people.

This is so their relatives know that they're being sucked into the US ICE void. It's a precaution to try and help ensure people don't "disappear" for good. There have been hundreds, if not thousands, of people becoming "mysteriously lost" after being detained by US authorities.

This isn't a Trump/GOP-only problem, but the GOP seem hell bent to make it even worse, so Mexico is preparing for that.
