Two plaintiffs alleged that DHS personnel used purportedly AI-enabled surveillance to identify people recording immigration enforcement and threatened to add them to a "domestic terrorist" database or watch list.

DHS has reportedly denied that such a database exists while acknowledging threat monitoring.
