Alphabet Inc.

Alphabet maintains multiple contracts with U.S. Customs and Border Protection totaling over $24 million, including a $19.5 million three-year contract through Westwind awarded in June 2024, a $3.6 million contract through ThunderCat running from June 2023 to 2026, and a $1.3 million contract through Four Points dating to 2020. AFSC Investigate documents that in 2020, CBP accepted a proposal to integrate Google Cloud AI into its INVNT surveillance system, which feeds data to Anduril-built surveillance towers deployed along the U.S.-Mexico border. Google approved 83 percent of approximately 40,000 law enforcement data requests in a six-month period in 2020, sharing user data with Immigration and Customs Enforcement via administrative subpoenas that require no judicial oversight.

Google's products are also embedded in the physical infrastructure of immigration detention. Google Maps is integrated into BI Incorporated's ankle monitoring shackles, which track more than 150,000 individuals under ICE supervision, as well as into the Attenti and VeriTracks electronic monitoring systems. These integrations mean Alphabet's location services directly enable the surveillance and movement restriction of people held in immigration detention or released under electronic monitoring conditions, generating revenue from the daily operation of the detention and deportation apparatus.
