Some politicians may want to build a wall between the US and Mexico, but they can’t put a border on the internet. User-published Google maps show locations of border patrol checkpoints, even including the mile markers they’re stationed at.
“Mile Marker 102 – I-10. Checks all Eastbound traffic. Five miles West of Sierra Blanca,” reads one bulletin on the “Routes to Avoid – Border Patrol Checkpoints” Google map. With a total of 20 pins on the map, it creates a rudimentary way to plan entry into the US without having to get through border patrol. That map is just one of many.
Clicking on “Related Maps” reveals numerous others adhering to the same principle. Another map with over 2,000 views is simply titled “Border Patrol” and has 72 border patrol stations pinned. That may sound like a lot of views for a map, but the “Routes to Avoid” map has over 630,000.
