"Emergency" does not imply "life or death".

  I was basing it on this line in the article: > any police jurisdiction can use an EDR to request immediate access to data without a warrant, provided the law enforcement entity attests that the request is related to an urgent matter of life and death.

    You shouldn't read so much into a single sentence like that when it's so broad. That's just a summary they wrote offhand. It's not an absolute statement about every jurisdiction or company. Google around and you'll find there's more to it than that. Like "serious physical injury" for example.

      > You shouldn't read so much into a single sentence I disagree. That sentence is unambiguous. Either that sentence is blatantly incorrect or an EDR does imply life or death. The two possibilities are mutually exclusive.

        I mean, you can call it "blatantly incorrect" if you wish. I'm just trying to discuss the facts, not defend the author.
