I agree with you. I’ve had one for years, and I don’t think I’ve made more than 4 calls on it. I use it mainly to listen to the radio at home.
It’s kind of creepy to me when I’m out in public, a dept. store or restaurant, and someone nearby is carrying on a loud and sometimes very personal conversation while they eat, shop, or walk around...not to mention the dangers of driving while texting/talking.
A buddy of mine owns a 63 split window in like new condition. He actually has it stored in a climate controlled bubble in his garage.....
Apologies for hijacking the thread. I don’t believe I’ve been so successful before, will try to curtail it in the future.
there is a USSC opinion prohibiting police from snooping randomly via infrared cameras into people’s homes. (unanimous I believe) Just because tech advances does not give the power to circumvent to the government.
Cell phones are not true telephones. They are really computers with vast personal data. All fourth amendment protected. Warrantless stingray, backdoors, and global warrants are just plain wrong.
LOL! Joke of the day.
And I'll bet that plastic wrap protects all its delicate electronics from being probed by the police, too!
“One problem is that far too many “conservative” judges are reflexively “pro-law enforcement”, even if that means supporting law enforcement trampling our Constitutional rights.”
Visit any Waco thread to watch the “pro-law enforcement” FR fascists advocate trampling our Constitutional rights.
“Visit any Waco thread to watch the “pro-law enforcement” FR fascists advocate trampling our Constitutional rights.”
OMG, I just responded to one of them!
Did not notice that when responding. Apologies again to the room.
Everyone hates populists. So whats the alternative? Follow the elites? As far as I know, there is the will of the people or the will of the elites. The people seem much more in tune with the limits of a constitutional republic.
The FR fascists weakly post to other threads to water down and legitimize their “pro-law enforcement” posts about murdering bikers at Waco, who they decided deserved to be killed.
“I still cannot understand how the Supreme Court upheld asset forfeiture laws as constitutional.”
Or abortion,
or the interstate commerce clause to include every single human activity,
Or the Kelo case,
or Obamacare,
The list is quite long.
“Psst. Rurudyne. Off switch. Just sayin’. LOL! “
No, actually the off switch won’t do you a bit of good. Only not having it with you, or having it inside some kind of faraday cage will work.
I’m thinking a nice stainless steel cigar case would make a jim-dandy faraday cage for those times when you would rather be dang-good-n-sure your iPhone is not being a tattletale. Just turning off the phone won’t work.
Even while turned off, the cellphone is still looking for cell towers or a stingray unit (same thing)
Why do you imagine while on 'Air Force One', you have to surrender your cellphone,.. and remove the battery ?
If stingray can reach into your phone, don't you think it also has the ability to turn it on, also ?
I had a 2014 Stingray. Chevy didn’t tell me about this.
DHS started funding grants for it in 2006, under Bush. I would say that GOPe “conservatives” like Bush are a bigger worry for not caring about unconstitutional BS like the use of Stingray than populists are.
These should be banned unless there is a specific target with a warrant. Any info from non-targets should be IMMEDIATELY discarded.
If we can’t ban this, then we need to arm ourselves with these devices and collect on all the politicians and judges who voted for this to be legal.
