  Been using Signal since the beginning and as long as they continue to do stuff like this I will continue to use them. If law enforcement wants to see my messages, serve me with a search warrant and stop trying to use subpeonas and the Third Party doctrine to violate my rights.

• On the post: Connecticut Supreme Court Says Cops Need Warrants To Run Drug Dogs Around Motel Room Doors

  

  Norahc ( profile ), 08 Oct, 2021 @ 09:18pm

  the state asserts that there is no reason to believe that the police in Connecticut would engage in such a trawling exercise, even though they could do so lawfully.

  Other than the fact the cops did just that in this case?

  What the hell is "malinformation", and how does it differentiate from the other two?

  How are any of the three different than what a politician normally spews out of their mouth?

  How low would the crime rates there be if cops and the DA stopped doing the RICO and stealing from people?

  Nah, they just claim qualified immunity because there is no case on record that says they can't violate laws to perform illegal background checks.

  The missing 10k is simply a "convience handling fee" the deputies charged them for the convience of having all their money stolen.

  Re:

  I wonder what the FBI would have to say if a person living across from one of their agents, or even the head of the FBI, recorded that agent's family's movements for a year or more.
