- dep_b 10y agoHe was just adding data to the owner's data that was already on the phone. If I upload my private movies to your hard drive, you are the one that needs to respect my privacy? Or should I stop using your harddrive?

- briandear 10y agoThat person had a stolen phone. Their expectation of privacy is irrelevant. The person who owned the phone has an expectation that their property wouldn't get stolen. Why are people here actually feeling sorry for the thief? It's bizarre. The thief created his own problem.
- Qantourisc 10y agoI doubt anyone here is feeling sorry for the thief (I could be wrong). It's more of an ethical / legal thing: Does one crime erode your rights (without the law / justice / trial) ?
- nsxwolf 10y agoIt's possible to feel sorry for someone while simultaneously prosecuting them with great zeal.
- arjie 10y agoSay I build a camera that has a practically infinite battery and records all the time and streams to Twitch. I keep this camera in my house facing a wall. You steal my camera and put it in your bedroom. It follows from what you're saying that I'm now invading your privacy. That doesn't pass the common sense test for me, sorry. If that's what the law says, then the law is broken.
