Federal immigration enforcement has entered a new era. ICE agents are now deploying facial recognition software, social media monitoring, and other digital tools to identify immigrants and surveil protesters.

MPR News host Catharine Richert and her guests take a hard look at how these technologies work, where the law draws the line, and what the expansion of digital surveillance means for privacy for all of us. If you've ever wondered how much your digital footprint can reveal, join us for tonight's conversation.

Guests:

• William McGeveran is the dean of the University of Minnesota Law School where he teaches data privacy.
• Shubhanjana Das is a reporter with the Sahan Journal.
