Government snarfing cell data - EVO 4G General

Ladies and gentlemen, have you seen this **** its on the register. Basically this company, cellebrite is selling ufed devices (universal forensic devices) to police. The police can then read all your data off your phone via hardline, IR, or Bluetooth. This includes phonebook, handset data, sms, mms, SIM data, multimedia, and time and date stamps.

What happends when criminals and criminal organizations get ahold of one of these devices?

I would think this would be a breech of privacy. If this is real than this is just completely dumb

I heard this on the radio this morning. It sounded like it has been going on since iphone upgraded to iOS 4. In michigian the police can take your iphone and plug it into some sort of hardware that pulls all your info from GPS and phone calls! The info is also uploaded to itunes, WTF!!!
feeling even better right now about owning a android

It handles 3000+ different phones so I wouldn't assume Android is excluded.

Eff the police.

The police are the wrong hands for this tech to be in. Police these days are the organized crime... they create more problems.

It's called the 4th Amendment. Preserve it, or lose it. Once you let the Govt take it away you'll never get it back.

Are you sure you are using the android market? There are plenty of good and innovative apps.....plenty of games to. Maybe you are looking at some other app store? Or you have gone blind and can not see the app?

Kind of odd that they would call him. And... did he actually patent the app or did he just put it up for sale? Also, it's a common feature. It isn't as if they were going to avoid adding this because one person or a dozen people created an application to do it. Secondly, it isn't like they are selling it. It is merely included in the os.

Not surprising for me. I reckon Apple will also claim that the notification center is completely their own Idea.
But what can you expect from a Corp that accuses MS of stealing the window approach when Stevie stole exactly that from Xerox.

What the hell is this?? I supposed you are serious. Maybe you should take some time off to think about posting this kind of thing in a mobile forum...this ain't appropiate at all.
And don't say..."but I had my atrix", yeah right. Not on my watch. This has been reported and it's against the rules since it's offensive for many members.
Maybe you should have time to read the iron fist innitiative.
Adios

Internet censorship petition

This is off topic but please do this and share it with as many people as you can.
http://americancensorship.org/
Today, Congress holds hearings on the first American Internet censorship system.
This bill can pass. If it does the Internet and free speech will never be the same.
Join all of us to stop this bill.

All of this is pathetic.. The RIAA and MPAA are in the Titantic and it has been sinking for awhile now ($$$).. yet they want to try and suck all the water out of the ocean (internet).. in a last ditch effort to survive.
Like anything else once some freedom is taken away, standby more and more will be taken.
As far as those companies who initially supported SOPA and/or PIPA and later backed out .. you are not forgotten or forgiven just because you caved under pressure.
