And I don't mean to say that ICE was operating under these rules. We don't know because ICE rules aren't public.

But Ross was aware that rules like this exist elsewhere, and WHY they exist elsewhere, and yet he still made the decisions he made.

It's being done on purpose, to move the country to violent conflict.

Link to Facetec's page where DHS is listed:
www.facetec.com#page-blk-cli...
(But they do list over 80 clients/partners)

So after I wrote the above thread I went out to chill and hear some music, but someone else found that FaceTec lists DHS as one of their clients/partners, which would tend to confirm that their sofware was part of what DHS used to build their app.

Also, the NYT was making their analysis based on much better quality video than what I head (and this video confirms my analysis) while my later analysis was based primarily on the path that the cell phone in his left hand must have taken in order to see the frames of video that it recorded.

And the reverse angle good quality video, also available on day one, showed his foot positions in what seemed to be consistent with the leaning position.
Given that another day one angle showed he had walked around the minivan, it was clear then that he head stepped in front of the minivan.

Granted I was making assumptions. One was that you can't lean at that angle without leaning on something, and I knew he fired from his right hand so I assumed he leaned with his left hand on the hood just from those two pieces of information (leaning and gun-in-right-hand).

And I'm not saying that the @nytimes.com stole my analysis. Just that, you know, I'm smarter than them, better than them, and they and you should follow me for more smarter, better, faster analysis.

Judging by FaceTec's website, they are not making an app so much as they have developed code libraries that can be licensed and utilized in other applications. Their website has a "Clients & Partners" section including this lovely logo:

It's somewhat similar, but not identical, to a demo app from a company called FaceTec, based on this 2017 article.

Here's a closeup of the app. I redacted the face of the civilian, FWIW, even though it's in the original.

Odd that it says Frame _your_ face. Unless of course it was just hacked together from something else. Maybe someone will recognize those framing lines from some other app?

Looks like a photo of this app was just published today.

OK, Definitely just some thin app that sends everything to a backend server "in the cloud" for analysis, reporting, and long term storage.

And note that I'm even more suspicious that they "internally" developed a multi-platform app. Maybe they internally developed a web app that frontends some commercial cloud service run by who knows who. But again, that brings us back to national security issues.

Has anyone found a copy anywhere of the android or iphone app binary?

Or even a photo showing what the screen or icon looks like for this app?
