Seems there is yet another app using the ICEBlock logo and charging people for access. It’s called ICEBlocker and it is not us.
DO NOT DOWNLOAD or pay. Best we can tell is it’s Russian.
We would never ask for money.

There's all the cruel violence, then there's the blatant theft. Take Venezuela. Take Greenland. Take a family's groceries on Christmas Eve. Rule by schoolyard bullies.
There's the heinousness, then there's also the vile opportunism. These guys are really going for America's Most Hated, aren't they?
ICE detain father shopping on Christmas Eve—then steal his family's groceries.
Then 3 agents divvy up his paid for food—taking what they want for themselves.
"Can I just get the wife's number to call and let her know?" woman asks.
"No, guess he should've complied," agent says.

Also superb, can you get more "woke" than making sure your guests know you get your sugar from a decent producer who doesn't use slaves than having a teapot like this on your table?

"Macy's invited Woodley back to fill Santa's chair the following year. As part of the hiring process, he was asked to take a routine physical, during which he disclosed the HIV and mental health medications he'd been taking."

The day Santas stormed Macy's to protest for AIDS awareness
On Black Friday 1991, AIDS activists protested the department store's decision to not rehire a Santa who had HIV. The man who inspired the protest reconnects with an activist who helped organize it.
