What is Airstrip One and in what country are you located?

Just watch out for the emergence of a charismatic person who “others” people like immigrants, homeless folks, poor people, disabled folks, or people different races/religion. I am in the US and it is scary here. I would leave but am trapped, and honestly Canada and the EU are not looking much better despite their constant judgements.

Reading the article, the defendant requested his phone from a detective, unlocked it in front of and with the knowledge the detective was watching. Later when the detective was inspecting the phone, he used the password he had seen the defendant use previously to unlock the phone. So it’s not as bad as a cop forcing you to unlock the phone. Good to know that in New Jersey police departments are considered public spaces and treat them accordingly.
i’d like to think that my pattern unlock w/o making the pattern visible would protect me against something like this; but i’m learning that nothing is safe from the authorities.
I had a similar thought, but then I realized you’re probably in a room that’s being recorded.
They could just rewind the video to see what pattern you used.
Maybe if you did it underneath your coat/sweatshirt, then they couldn’t see it at all.
i tried making it complicated too, but i doubt that helps much.
Just when will my human rights, which are grounded in the constitution, stop being put aside by bullshit rulings ad absurdum
Also, this is why you should use a privacy screen.
the US constitution is an ideological rag and a liberal holy text written by and for wealthy protocapitalists seeking independence from mercantilism. it wasn’t written for you, just as it wasn’t written for women or BIPOC. the police and courts serve the state, not persons.
