When ICE asks Google for your user information
- caseysoftware 6y agoThe single best thing we can do to restore privacy and challenge screwy law enforcement is to end Third Party Doctrine. The third-party doctrine is a United States legal doctrine that holds that people who voluntarily give information to third parties—such as banks, phone companies, internet service providers (ISPs), and e-mail servers—have "no reasonable expectation of privacy." A lack of privacy protection allows the United States government to obtain information from third parties without a legal warrant and without otherwise complying with the Fourth Amendment prohibition against search and seizure without probable cause and a judicial search warrant.

- CaptainJustin 6y agoI am gradually getting myself out of the FANG world. What do you do about the duopoly (is that right?) of the A+G? The two of them own iOS and Android. Not sure I can have smart phone today without one of them involved.

- einpoklum 6y agoI would suggest that referring to the (federal) State as "we" is somewhat naive. Perhaps you should say: "The best thing we could do... is try to force the US federal government to end Third Party Doctrine." Unfortunately, the populace couldn't even get the government to cover treatment for Covid patients during an f'ing pandemic, or to update the minimum wage after well over a decade of erosion. Or to leave Afghanistan after 20 years. etc.

- 5etho 6y agoas european I was wondering what In Case of Emergency phone contact has to do with privacy than I read about near nazi dystopian immigration police, ohhhh right
- tinus_hn 6y agoIn Case of Emergency phone contacts are a really old Facebook meme with no real world use. The ambulance driver can’t unlock your phone to look at your contact list. If you want them to be able to lookup an emergency contact, use your phone OS’s way to register one. On iPhone: register an emergency contact in the Health app under ‘Medical ID’ On Android as far as I know it varies by manufacturer.
