Wouldn't that just create a database of targets?
This is so their relatives know that they're being sucked into the US ICE void. It's a precaution to try and help ensure people don't "disappear" for good. There have been hundreds, if not thousands, of people becoming "mysteriously lost" after being detained by US authorities.

This isn't a Trump/GOP-only problem, but the GOP seem hell bent to make it even worse, so Mexico is preparing for that.
Oh I believe their good intentions, I just worry about people with bad intentions abusing it.

Too late for that if you're currently being detained.
Well yeah but now their relatives would also be on the list.
There is that, potentially.
I mean it's by the Mexican government so it shouldn't be available to the people targeting migrants in the US.
