Roundtables: The Deadly Failures of The Virtual Border Wall
· 1 min read · Summary from MIT Technology Review
The US has spent billions building a “virtual wall” of surveillance towers along its southern border over the past 25 years, promising they will help detect and apprehend border crossers and save lives. But a groundbreaking investigation by MIT Technology Review has documented over a thousand people who moved through areas watched by these towers…
WORO's take
The US has spent billions on surveillance towers along its southern border, but a MIT Technology Review investigation found that over a thousand people still crossed the border undetected. The report shows the towers failed to prevent crossings and did not save lives as promised.
Small business owners rely on a stable workforce and supply chain. If border security fails, it can lead to labor shortages, increased costs, and disruptions in shipping that affect inventory and customer service.
Try setting up a WORO campaign that highlights your business’s commitment to reliable delivery and local hiring. Watch for updates on border policy changes that could impact your supply chain and adjust your messaging accordingly.
