Joshua Aaron, creator of ICEBlock, has asked Apple to reinstate the app in its online store, telling CNBC in an interview that when the app was first submitted it had been through a heavy review process, and that he is consulting an attorney. The app, which can be used to anonymously report sightings of ICE agents and other authorities, was removed after pressure from U.S. Attorney General Pam Bondi. The FBI claimed that a gunman who attacked a Dallas ICE facility used apps that tracked ICE agents. Aaron likens it to apps that allow drivers to report sightings of law enforcement officers so they can warn others and avoid speeding tickets.

The image depicts a close-up of a hand and forearm adorned with a complex, mechanical device resembling a futuristic, high-tech bracelet or prosthetic. The device is teal and silver, with numerous buttons, dials, and digital displays covering its surface. The hand is wearing several silver rings, including one with a large, red, faceted stone. The hand and forearm are partially visible against a background of soft pink fabric with a subtle, textured pattern.
The mechanical device features numerous small digital screens displaying a variety of numbers and symbols. Several labels are visible on the device, including "TEST SEQUENCE" and a series of numbers and letters. The rings on the hand are clustered together on the ring finger and appear to be metallic in color. The pink fabric has a slight sheen and a wrinkled texture, and the overall style of the image is reminiscent of cyberpunk or science fiction art.
