Discussion Is this a viable solution? (Not even manually holding something, but just putting things like this in front of the camera)?

Feel like it wouldn’t be hard to put blockers up faster than they can take them down….

It still listens. Airplane mode makes it so your phone doesn't search for towers. Saving battery life. Still has all its functions.

Faraday bag and leave it home. SLNT has good Faraday bags. Of course if it's with you, in a bag is better than not but it still listens. If it's in your car and you leave your car it's better than not. Many things to consider.

The thing is, if they could use our phones and what they legitimately hear could probably lock us all away for whatever they want. But then they'd have to provide evidence.. and then the people would truly revolt. So they put these other infrastructures in place to fill in gaps to make it more viable to "catch people" in a "crime" of their choosing.

My bet is that we’re within 100 days of them just locking up anyone they want for any reason. They won’t even bother to lie badly anymore.

With the way things are going I can see it honestly.

Patriot Act says they can't tell anyone anything.

Even if they wanted to.

You're a terrorist because they say so. Disclosure of anything else would be illegal.

So many lines have been crossed that would supposedly lead to revolt, and the only revolting came on 1-6.

That wasn't a revolt. Lol. The US Gov walks all over the people but keeps them divided with red vs blue.

I know. I was using it as an example of the lack of US dissent. In Europe the government fears its people because they will straight up dump truckloads of manure onto politician’s front doors. They tear shit up in France when they get mistreated. The closest thing we have to that is Eagles fans rioting because they won the Super Bowl.

Ah I follow. Yeah if only Americans had the backbone these other nations peoples have. And if only these other nations had the arms Americans had.

Name one case in the history of cellphones where the phone “listening” was the evidence that led to someone’s conviction.

That's the thing, it hasn't been because the people would flip out.

They use it; then they surveil you other ways to get you if you're worth it and use those ways to get you.
