Data is beautiful, fascists are not
These are the worst possible color choices to make a useable map for my colorblind ass.
If it’s any consolation, most asses are colourblind.
I saw this map in a different magazine last night. While it's great, it should be mentioned that the map has a notation at the bottom saying it's a copy of a map hosted off-site and may be out of date. "Click here to go to the original hosting site", or similar words.
And the site that it links to is ICE.
So, thoughts: It's great that this is being mirrored off-site, but the mirror may be outdated. ICE may also contaminate the original data at some point. And if you want to access the actual current map, ICE will have your IP address (and has an executive order saying they can raid your house without a warrant), so perhaps take some precautions before clicking on that link.
It's a map created by the Immigrant Legal Resource Center and they host an interactive map that you can mouseover. They get their data from ICE, whose website includes a non-interactive map in the form of a PDF. ICE is encouraging people to visit their site and write to their local law enforcement, they're not going to waste resources tracking every visitor to determine if they're really part of the target audience for their message.
It shouldn't need to be said that the link is to ice. The link clearly says "ice dot gov" in the text. This warning sounds overly paranoid.
