It depends on what country you're in but in Germany this is possible. Businesses can just withdraw from your account. You can dispute this for a number of weeks though and can get it back. The business then needs to prove that you auth

I assume the situation is this: They have loads of dormant accounts that haven't been used in years but that have a few dollars on them. If they want to close these accounts, they have to find those people and give them their $7.59. By

I think they might be researchers, so this is their job.

Tether is one of them, I suppose. No one has been caught (yet).

And here I sit, thinking those rules were so that the 1% could take all the value the 99% produced.

The thought that politicians are not smarter than me is so scary to me. I don't fully understand so many things (globalization is absurdly complicated), but at least I don't have to make decisions that will affect millions of peop

Which, as I wrote, is what I am using on my Pixel 6 with GrapheneOS. I don't get your point?

Why? Seems pretty intuitive to me in a time where everything is encrypted.

How would you install a keylogger on an encrypted device without rooting it or deleting user data?

Confiscated phones often have been confiscated for months and are therefore on a relatively old patch level. If at any point old vulnerabilities come out these can be used. Keeping the phones on and connected to a charger in the evidence lo

Your carrier can not track you nearly as detailed as google can. Your carrier doesn't know which sites you visit (only the IPs) and they especially don't know how long you look at what, what you're buying, etc. Their location
