EFF has created a traveling exhibit, “Border Surveillance: Places, People, and Technology,” which will make its debut at the Angel Island Immigration Station historical site this spring.

The exhibition on Angel Island in San Francisco Bay will run from April 2, 2025 through May 28, 2025. We would especially like to thank the Angel Island Immigration Station Foundation and Angel Island State Park for their collaboration. You can learn more about the exhibit’s hours of operation and how to visit it here

For the last several years, EFF has been amassing data and images detailing the massive increase in surveillance technology infrastructure at the U.S.-Mexico border. EFF staff members have made a series of trips along the U.S.-Mexico border, from the California coast to the tip of Texas, to learn from communities on both sides of the border; interview journalists, aid workers, and activists; and map and document border surveillance technology. We created the most complete open-source and publicly-available map of border surveillance infrastructure. We tracked how the border has been used as a laboratory to test new surveillance technologies. We went to court to protect the privacy of digital information for people at the border. We even released a folder of more than 65 open-licensed images of border surveillance technology so that reporters, activists, and scholars can use alternative and open sources of visual information to inform discourse.
