RE: Law Enforcement Using "Reverse Warrants" to Track People in the Area of a Crime Using Cell Data
I do not believe Boogle is "pushing back". That is only PR image keeping.
I am pretty sure that if one really looked into this, they would find Boogle making inroads into police departments telling them how to properly apply for warrants.
Now, what really frosts my cookies is that any "bad guy" will know to turn off their cellphones or leave them at home before they go perform a crime.
So, lets say a man grabbed some ladies purse.
Boogle request yields that there were 3 women and 1 man in the area.
So, that 1 man is picked up and arrested.
Although the perp didn't have a phone on him, that is not accounted for.
The police got a man, case closed.
Maybe it's a front, but the document says they refused in one case. It doesn't seem like they would care that much, but maybe they refuse because they know it's shady ground and are waiting for new laws to make it fully legal... And yes, criminals can just go without phones...
So can people that don't want to be tracked. I don't use Goolag, disable the software that does, don't get apps from them, etc... I don't take my phone with me when I leave the house without specific reason, don't enable GPS, don't use Chrome, all of that, and more.
In time of universal deceit, telling the truth is a revolutionary act. -- George Orwell. Given the extant political system, refusing to be herded like cattle makes one akin to a criminal in the eyes of government. Since I know why cattle are herded, I am not amongst the herd.
Thanks!
Kudos, you have some dedication there :)
