An external hard drive and a boot USB and you can copy everything for examination later. That's a rather powerful exemption from copyright laws, letting the police make trillions of dollars (RIAA accounting) in copies, with no oversight at all. I would think those copies would count as expropriation of assets if they keep them.
You could use high explosive tungsten fletchet rounds, that explode after passing through the armour. Would also be useful against light APC's and armoured trucks.
They don't need to cut off fingers to steal your money. Just collect a sample of your prints and print them onto latex gloves coloured to look like human flesh. Easy, cheap, and nobody knows until a month later when you get your bank statement and the thieves are long gone.
If the company that makes the software running on your phone is willing to backdoor the phone, then the security of the apps is not an issue. If the company that makes the baseband for your phone is willing to backdoor the phone, then the security of the apps is not an issue. If the company that makes the integrated circuits for your phone is willing to backdoor the phone, then the security of the apps is not an issue.
Rich men from Saudi Arabia have for years used their money to export their extremist faction of Islam. Those same areas are now self declared regions of Islamic State. The official religion of ISIS is the same faction of Islam practiced in Saudi Arabia.
We could have bailed out the people, and let the banks fail. If there is no penalty for stupid mistakes then corporations will just keep getting worse (if you give welfare to the poor you discourage them from working for a living).
You forgot 'copyright infringement is not piracy' on your list. The copyright cartels work very hard to trick or convince people that copyright infringement (equivalent to graffiti) is a huge crime deserving of serious criminal persecution.
The key technology we need to unlock massive amounts of radio spectrum is directional radio links. Then you can have thousands of devices talking on the same frequency at the same time in the same area, without any interference. It's like how you can have dozens of billboards along the highway, without drowning each other out. You just look at the signal source you want to hear and ignore the rest.
The remote update feature lets them upload and run arbitrary code onto any iPhone. That's a massive security flaw, but probably a needed one if you want your software kept up to date on security fixes.
The case proved that iPhones are (were) not secure, and revealed a plausible method to hack into them. Now we know that anyone with the Secret Key for signing software can hack into (some?) iPhones. I expect Apple's next move will be to lock down this hole, FBI's next move to look for a better test case to compel corporate obedience, and NSA's next move to get that signing key.
A big reason the USA is going bankrupt is because the corporate share of taxes has been going steadily down for decades. 2-There should be a maximum size on corporations. Too big to fail should mean too big to live.
It means the taxpayer pays for the lines and AT&T owns them. If the taxpayers owned the wire then they could allow a competing service to use them, and that would reduce profits at AT&T. The public highway and roadway system has worked very well, I think we need a publicly owned data network (the wires), with phones/tv/internet provided over those wires by anyone who wants to do so. This would make the barrier to entry for such service very low, and ensure maximum competition (high service and low price).
American drug laws are not religion based, they are based on persecuting minorities by criminalizing their drug of choice. Alcohol and Heroin are comparable hard core drugs, but the drug commonly used by white skinned European ancestry Americans is legal.
Coal power kills more people per YEAR than Nuclear power has ever killed, total. And the nuclear waste problem only exists because America refuses to use waste reprocessing. A nuclear reactor converts radiation to electricity. Stop taking the fuel out of the reactor and dumping it in a hole in the ground.
The best part about this plan, if they are careless with the nuclear waste and spill some- nobody will know as the whole area is contaminated. Combine cheap land with lax enforcement and you have a Russian dream business.
You don't need to alter the hardware to backdoor a modern server, you compromise the firmware on the motherboard. No hardware evidence, impossible to detect from software.
If you care about security, don't have your headquarters or manufacturing in the USA. Don't buy American anything, and build everything yourself, using your own designs.
Mandatory labeling of what was fed to an animal before it hits the grocery shelf would be nice. You can tell free range eggs from regular ones by colour and taste, so clearly there are differences.
Bananas are radioactive. This isn't Chernobyl fallout though, it's from the potassium naturally containing a radioactive isotope. You might want to set limits on this, however, for produce from Japan.

With a short barrel shotgun they wouldn't even need to aim.

Losing the copyright case costs you money, losing an extortion case puts them in jail. What happens if someone is willing to make that trade?

Maybe we need fewer laws to break. We can start by revoking all the victim less crimes, where they arrest you for hurting yourself.
They claim that, but their religious practices are so vastly different as to stretch the claim past the breaking point.
With free public Wifi, your IP address can almost be used as a phone number. The internet is rapidly replacing the old phone network.

What is the legality of putting spyware into Apple servers? I believe this would qualify as a search, and therefore require a warrant.
