Not sure I understand how this is newsworthy exactly, people make mistakes (even those on HN) and there is due process and recourse for whoever was impacted by this mistake.
If the implication is that if law enforcement make mistakes they cannot be legitimate then I think we should just give up on the idea, but I guess this is more or less what is being advocated for, so maybe it can be stated more directly.
- orf 6y agoI guess it’s the fact that they proudly declared the seizure which was obviously a complete fail at even the briefest glance at the pictures they provided. It’s funny and newsworthy.
- xigency 6y ago> there is due process and recourse for whoever was impacted by this mistake. I wouldn't be so sure. When you're going up against the US government and the largest US corporation it's going to be an uphill battle.
