Abstract
This research examines the intersection between the policy issues and the experiences Iraqis have with cellular broadband connections (CBCs) in rural Iraq. Findings imply that the Iraqi rural broadband policy has failed in the following areas: subsidy, licenses, and tax relief. These failures happen due to favoring private cellular broadband providers (CBPs) over rural public interest. Further, the policy failure affected rural Iraqis in the following aspects: social seclusion, apprehension of missing out, waiting without hope, and limited alternatives. This research brings new information about the Iraqi telecom sector that could contribute to filling the knowledge gap in this field.

ABSTRACT
This article discusses the chilling effect impact on immigrants' freedom of speech resulting from recent Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) surveillance processes utilizing the SmartLINK app and Alternatives to Detention (ATD) program. Further, this article brings privacy abuses of immigrants to U.S. lawmakers' attention, as well as possible violations of Fourth Amendment rights related to personal networks that apply to U.S. citizens and legal permanent residents alike. Finally, this manuscript provides legal recommendations that might be used as a panacea to solve the problem of ICE surveillance of immigrants.
