Oh well, police solved crimes before they could retroactively surveil a person for months/years.

are you asking a cop to… work?

Think of how many minorities they miss out on because they let technology tell them where to point their guns

/s, I don’t know if that’s as big an issue in Canada as the US

Damn, if that isn’t a glowing endorsement…

The phone operates on a little-known and highly secure operating system called GrapheneOS

“little-known” - rude :(

Oh good, a fresh attempt to demonize having a phone with privacy.

yeah, definitely feels like a side attack on graphene.

I understand this is a Privacy forum but I suspect this news cycle is a distraction.

Wow, that Elias Mouawad guy’s lawyer has the techno-fascist goon look nailed.

  • Criminal defense attorney defending crooked cops, looks like someone Peter Thiel sends to kill you.

Cops in the employ of organized crime are not exactly the people you would want having backdoor access to everyone’s phones lol

Good, fuck those cops

Maybe they should have done proper investigations aimed at penetrating the network instead of just seizing devices and thinking they can pop them into their zionist entity hacking devices and get their case delivered in a silver platter?

The old way would be build a case against someone in this network then flip them into an asset with threats of heavy jail time for their involvement in it and other crimes and get them to assist in penetrating it in exchange for sentencing leniency or even going free.

They still happily take the time to do this and secure informants when infiltrating leftist groups but criminals are not worth the hassle I guess.
