Apple Company Helps Cops To Hide ‘Police Brutality

Post by phuketrichard »

Well we all know which side big business is on now dont we?

Since the Michael Brown incident in Ferguson, it seems like more and more videos are coming online depicting the police using excessive force. This is a very good thing because as a society we have to hold the police, as well as the government, responsible for their actions. Well Apple has recently patented a technology that may actually allow police to stop or interfere with your cell phone’s ability to record video where ever the police would decide to put this technology up.

The Apple Company Helps Cops To Hide ‘Police Brutality’

Apple’s patent is currently active for the police-state technology and as Ana Kasparian of The Young Turks describes, “Those policies would be downloadactivated by GPS, and WiFi or mobile-base stations, which would ring-fence around a building or a ‘sensitive area’ to prevent phone cameras from taking pictures or recording video.” Here is what the patent itself describes as the use and “positive” aspects of the technology:

“As wireless devices such as cellular telephones, pagers, personal media devices and smartphones become ubiquitous, more and more people are carrying these devices in various social and professional settings,” the patent reads. “The result is that these wireless devices can often annoy, frustrate, and even threaten people in sensitive venues. For example, cell phones with loud ringers frequently disrupt meetings, the presentation of movies, religious ceremonies, weddings, funerals, academic lectures, and test-taking environments.”

The patent also goes on to say that police and government agencies way use it to “blackout” conditions where covert operations or situations where they don’t want people using cell phones. This technology could help police develop and sustain a police state before we even know it. Without video evidence of such events people won’t know it’s happening until it is happening to them. In which case, may be too late to do anything about it. Stay informed and be active in reporting any police brutality you see while you still can.

In a nation run by swine, all pigs are upward-mobile and the rest of us are fucked until we can put our acts together: not necessarily to win, but mainly to keep from losing completely. HST

America the land of the Free, NOT. Its now America the land of the new centurions, Gestapo/Waffen SS look a likes. Amerika the land of the not so free has more people (men) in jails/prisons per capita than any other country on earth. (2,200,000+) More than North Korea, more than Russia, more than China and more than any of the Craplanastans. Apple knows where it's bread is buttered, but is not alone as Microsoft is a major contributor to the militant "Gay/Homosexual" movement in AmeriKa.

I thought APPLE worked for NSA/FBI so no surprise they would cover up/disable video.

Jay, OK. Both have an agenda to make money. Do you think Apple is Pure?

Shit sticks to the wall when you throw it. Would you refuse Fed funds?

Noooo body refuses the funds but Google pays no taxes. My BFF is a hvac engineer at googles hq. He told he that the DHS and ATF have huge offices in their building. What more can I say? I just worry that one day people who have more moderate Right views then Left wiil be persecuted for their beliefs, Which is already happening.

Phone blockers already exist.
Is there not a danger that phones could show perps real time actions? And that a police blackout would be a good thing during an incident?
This is ultra paranoia. We survived generations without video phones, without the Police enacting a " police state" .

Yes, Everyone is a target, no Left nor Right matters. State vs People. We're fucked!

The myth is some are above been "looked" at. There is no difference, just a game of "deemed" correct opinions.

It's a shell game. Stop eating the pablum from all of them.

UKJ, you can still use a "Camera", maybe not stream to a Cloud real time but still record.

Good point.
The way I see it, is that if they want a police/ military state, they can do it any time they want. Thailand being an example. North Korea being another! Phone footage won't change a thing.
