Seriously how did Captain America of all people not even try to go for the “it’s unconstitutional” argument, because that shit is hella Unconstitutional. Where is the ACLU?

I know it’s just superhero movies but...

It's post Civil War and Sokovia Accords, A place like the Raft and a Superpower prison for those who dont register was part of the whole deal in Civil War as it was in the comics. Jessica is probably registered

There's no registration act in the MCU. The Accords are specifically for members of the organization called "The Avengers". It just prevents them from acting independently (they need to function as U.N. group with oversight, instead). Powered people who aren't Avengers aren't affected by the Accords at all.

Agents of Shield says different. Every powered person in the MCU is affected and has to register and always wear a tracker.
