I'll give them a myspace page
And they tell me I’m paranoid
you're not paranoid, the whole world's gone mad, that's all
Has the consitution mattered lately?
If the story about Robert’s refusing to hear cases because it might lead to violence are actually true then the war is lost and the right doesn’t seem to realize that it ever began…
I have put dashcams (interior/exterior) in all of our vehicles, both due to LEO interaction as well as being an LTC holder. In the event of a Law Enforcement encounter, I power off my phone as soon as I can do so safely without presenting as "reaching".
A powered down/rebooted phone cannot be unlocked via BIometrics the first time it starts. This prevents someone from using a fingerprint or facial recognition (suggestion: shut that shit off!) to unlock your phone against your will so as to extract information. I highly suggest turning encryption ON to make it harder for someone to obtain your data.
In the current climate, I would also file an immediate FOIA request or similar action in your local jurisdiction for bodycam footage on even a "routine" traffic stop.
Blue isn't necessarily the "bad guy" but we are in tough times right now.
Your Mission or Your Oath; Make your choice, son.
I have an older phone but presumably you could also just turn those biometric features off, right?
Yes. I won't tell other people what to do, but I advise clients to shut that face recognition off, stat. Too easy to compromise.
The fingerprint reader, while convenient could be considered an issue. It is a risk but a measured one that is easier to manage than facial recognition. Don't get pass-out drunk and let people have your phone.
Powering down and forcing a Passcode/Pattern to startup is the best bet as I see it today. So far courts have not compelled many Citizens to unlock their phones. I don't envision a traffic stop getting to that level.
just wait til 2 more years of biden, LOL. hes already trying to decree what medical procedures companies have to force on their employees.... its downwind of tyranny from here, bro.
Oh good. Lots of hos about to find themselves under LAPDstapo watch, and lots of cops are about to get shot for pissing off paranoid drug addicts.
They also want your social security number so they can do identity theft.
