So data stored on a phone counts as "physical evidence"?
- pzh 8y agoWouldn’t they have to prove that there was any data on the device to begin with? Maybe Apple should provide a partial wipe option for locked devices.
- swebs 8y agoWhy wouldn't it be? It's the same as words on paper.
- colejohnson66 8y agoMore like encrypted words on paper
- mcfedr 8y agoBecause there is nothing 'physical' about it.
- swebs 8y agoThe phone is the physical evidence. Would you not consider a flash drive as physical evidence? Even at the most pedantic level, the data is still stored physically as the state of the logic gates.
