A spokesperson for CBP, Roger Maier, said the group of migrants posed a “potential threat to make a mass entry”, according to the Associated Press. “We just want an answer, so we came to see if it was true.”The US Department of Homeland Security recently introduced the app, CBP One. The US government said earlier this year that it was the only way migrants at the border could apply for asylum and exemptions from a decades-old code called Title 42. The app has also generated criticism that it is vulnerable to racial bias. Advocates maintain that the app has barred many Black migrants from being able to submit claims because the technology fails to register people with darker skin tones.
