! Michigan: Police Search Cell Phones During Traffic Stops !

[Stealth Stalker]

I'll be laughing my arse off when we start seeing a lot of teenaged girls being arrested for having "kiddie pr0n" (nude pics of themselves) on their phones. There's a lot of talk about that in the news lately, so it wouldn't surprise me if that's what they were after.

Wait until they access the GPS info from the phone. Crazy stuff that I'm sure the lawyers and insurance companies would like to see!

And the officers being arrested for looking at the kiddie porn.

For some reason the new iphone has GPS that you cannot turn-off. You complete life is reduced to latitude and longitude. There are map apps that plot this data. Nothing is sacred anymore. One more reason I would not buy an iphone.

I am amazed at the pictures that teenage girls send to teenage boys today. It seems that to attract attention, pictures of body parts are emailed without any thought. I guess flirting has gone xxx and electronic. Being illegal for all parties is a very dangerous situation with this “random” scanning.

I wonder if they are using this:

Especially troubling with the news iPhone's store a complete and entire history of everywhere you have gone and how long you were there....

This is going to piss a lot of people off. I wish this would happen to me. This crap happens to me I am going to the cops house with a bunch of thugs an see how he likes total strangers invading his personal space. I guarantee he will think about snooping on my cell phone again. Its perfectly legal.

I have mentioned this to people I have worked with and of course they gave me the famous answer "If you didnt do anything wrong you would have nothing to hide." At which point the conversation ends for me.

"Oh I've done lots of **** wrong, too bad you can't prove it without searching me"
