  • This is stupid. He shouldn’t be charged unless they can prove that he destroyed evidence. If it was evidence, what was it?

    Did they mistakenly erase the phone trying to unlock it, or did it erase itself when he didn’t log in for a certain period of time? Like obviously if he was in custody, he either knew he was going to be detained and erased it beforehand (unlikely) or they messed up and ran afoul of good tech privacy practices and are big mad about it.




  • I like this idea for a lot of reasons. The inclement weather one I see in the comments is definitely one of them.

    But it also puts me in mind of some of the clever ways I’ve seen posts and reflectors used to give the impression (when say you’re driving at night and only see them out of the corner of your eye) of a person standing there, until you look at them properly and then they look exactly like what they are.

    There’s one in particular in a neighborhood where I used to live that to this day if I drive by it, my hindbrain says “HUMAN” and I really don’t understand why because the post looks nothing like a human when I look at it properly. It’s magic.


  • Yeah. I wasn’t sure it would work for your use case necessarily, but I did remember seeing that a version of the Walmart onn box was available in Europe, so I didn’t want to discount it altogether.

    Either way I do hope you find what you’re looking for and if I come across suggestions that might work I’ll try to post them here.
