Is the use of technologies (as drones that can collect biometric data such as facial recognition), the solution to control irregular immigration on Mexico's southern border, especially in the region of Tapachula in Chiapas? Irregular immigrant flows in Tapachula have increased year after year; these flows are also increasing insecurity perceptions in the region, so it is pertinent to ask if the use of technologies is suitable to control irregular immigration, as opposed to the creation of border walls. If information and communications technology (ICT) is a reasonable answer to the problem of irregular immigration, we need to consider whether Mexican authorities are capable of protecting the privacy and personal data of immigrants and of safely dealing with such personal data in general. The purpose of this chapter is to demonstrate that Tapachula should incorporate ICT infrastructure to mitigate the effects of illegal people smuggling, albeit without neglecting to adequately protect the human rights of immigrants.
