But in the end we all have to remember anew, that it’s all about God, who is generous beyond belief but won’t excuse the guilty.

Obama isn’t even being honest methinks. He wants an easy omnisnoop capability. Not an old fashioned system of investigators and spies.

And the idea of embracing God as bulwark against the motive to general skulduggery? Never enters his head.

I tell you what Øbongo - why don’t you talk about a subject that you know something about (the silence would be refreshing).

There has to be some concession to the need to be able to get into that information somehow.

About those School Records? Birth Certificate? Social Security Number?...

A brief refresher for the self appointed Constitutional Law lecturer.
That phone contains the personal and private property of the Citizen.

Amendment IV

The right of the people to be secure in their persons, houses, papers, and effects, against unreasonable searches and seizures, shall not be violated, and no warrants shall issue, but upon probable cause, supported by oath or affirmation, and particularly describing the place to be searched, and the persons or things to be seized.

FBI and Obama are stupid, they will drive people to use more sophisticated methods.

Like hidden disk, where your real data is encrypted but seemingly doesn’t exist. It is completely hidden and appears to be random bits on your drive.

It is actually going to be possible to have a virtual phone within your phone that no one even knows exists.

Not only can you not hack it, you won’t even know it is there to attempt to crack it in the first place.

Obama crapping in his own nest in front of the crowd that elected him. They could learn a lesson here but I doubt they will.

I say we give up the Obamaphones. Obamaphones need to be outlawed. Working people pay for Obamaphones for street animals to use to stage demonstrations to bring down our nation. We are paying for our own destruction.

Doesn’t the 4th amendment cover this?

telling a crowd that included many technology innovators that society cannot end up “fetishizing our phones above every other value.”

I make a fetish of LIBERTY
not my phone.

Obama has transformed America
into the Weimar Republic.

It won’t end well no matter what happens.

Indeed Obama misses the good old days of the CCCP.

And on what other ones once he wins? That’s what worries me.
