Play really loud background music over the PA system. In the bathroom turn on the faucets and flush the toilets. Or maybe they can use EMP to zap your phone at the entrance. How are you going to prove they did it?
We can elect a congress that will properly exercise its constitutional authority over these agencies. Is that really so difficult to understand? Or shall we just continue with the blame game?
Just because we aren't using it, doesn't mean we don't have the power. Only we can fix it. All that is required is the will. With that we can do anything.
In my opinion tech companies only use them for good PR since the financial penalties are not that high.
Same here. I just didn't know the government can compel a person to tell a lie, or prohibit the mere mention of warrants at all (Australia). I guess, with the lack of resistance at the voting booth, people are okay with it, or even demand more of the same when I look at the election results. It is hatred at work really. Pretty damn sad.
Are you serious? They prohibit telling people they are not being spied on? Fascinating. Oh well, I guess the voters don't really mind... I have to remember how conservative people really are, and that most of them approve. To me this just shows what weak knees the liberals have. They can't win elections worth shit.
The arrogance and/or cognitive dissonance required must be astronomical.
With a guaranteed 95% reelection rate, they needn't concern themselves with such thoughts. Everybody's happy. Nothing will come of it. It's just more chatter in the outfield.
Will it make a difference at election time? Probably not. The regular 95% reelection rate is going to continue for the foreseeable future, and people will come back here and complain like it's not their fault that it does. We've been through this before. It's just another day in paradise. Go back to your drinks, and forget about it.
Well, there are several manuals, each with a different approach. Probably the best way to deal is to take a little from here, some from there, mix it in cup and swig the whole thing in one shot.
The regulators will take of all that. The cord plugging into the public USB can avoid the data issues by simply not connecting the data pins. The 5volts and ground should always be there. It shouldn't be complicated.
There is only one wire going to your house. The ISPs, as that single point of failure we haven't circumvented yet, will have a USDA or FDA or TSA/FBI/DEA/CIA approved white list. Everything else is summarily blocked, no questions asked. Under the present circumstances, censorship and spying is not very difficult.
Wouldn't it be cheaper just to sue poor people who vote for corrupt politicians? They'll have no way of fighting back. You can walk away with a summary judgement.
Well, fine.. Just kick and enjoy the show if you can't be bothered. Voting should be like The Rocky Horror Picture Show, where the audience actually participates. We are all perfectly capable of turning our backs on those who take the money. The lack of will is the only real issue.
Let somebody store the data you want to access. Doesn't somebody have to hold it to make it retrievable? I didn't go to Harvard, so I'm not really up to speed on these things. Let's get a second opinion from Yale...
You shouldn't have to spend a dime. What is needed is the vote to kick out the politicians that give the TSA life. Until that happens we just have to assume the majority is okay with it. If we have to buy votes, we're doing it wrong. And it just won't work.

I am here to tell you that Christianity is more gooder.
Uh huh... drifting too far off topic for comfort...
Governments can make them illegal too.

Notify everybody they are not being spied on until they get an order. Then when the notices stop coming you will know what's happening.

the reserve system we've been relying on for so long will not last much longer.
With willing slaves, it can go on indefinitely.
The TSA screening is a political issue only...
Well, not only. There is plenty of money to be made. Turns out terrorism makes for a pretty good business model.

What, are all the lawsuits out of the way already?
Somebody is going to make a bundle selling USB voltage regulators. As for data? The chargers don't use those pins

Vote!

Then why would I need to argue it?
Turn your camera on so you can see what is in front of you "through" your phone by making it "transparent"
