Police are using dead criminals’ fingerprints to access iPhones

>Separate sources close to local and federal police investigations in New York and Ohio, who asked to remain anonymous as they weren’t authorized to speak on record, said it was now relatively common for fingerprints of the deceased to be depressed on the scanner of Apple iPhones, devices which have been wrapped up in increasingly powerful encryption over recent years. For instance, the technique has been used in overdose cases, said one source. In such instances, the victim’s phone could contain information leading directly to the dealer.

So? You're dead who the fuck cares.

That's what they get for relying on biometrics, let alone apple.

Your drug dealer?

Corpses have no rights.

Oh noooooo, the person committing a crime might get arrested!!!!!!

Do you have any rights after death? Why is privacy any differemt?

>let alone apple
>phone opened on biometric scan, exactly as intended
O-okay, user...

If you want to be feel good you can just take a photo and make a fingerprint copy. Shit works well even at range and is a decade old. They were just practical and saved some tax money.

>biometrics are safer than a password
No one with a triple digit IQ ever said this. Biometric identification is for convenience, not security.

Well, your family has some right over your corpse and property. But the corpse is just that.

You dont. You have no rights to privacy after death.

>inb4 living dead is a thing in future

>>biometrics are safer than a password
said no one

You can fuck me in the nose after my brain shuts down for all I care.

That's what you get for using biometrics for authentication instead of identification.

so could anything the government violate the 1st amendment and remove anything you've written?

Touch ID only works if you're living though

>phone opened on biometric scan
It isn't called biometric if the scanned sample isn't alive you retard. Educate yourself. That's why actual biometric sensors don't work with a cut finger or hand.

Bullshit
Touch and face ID can be used to open a dead person s phone

>selling and consuming drugs should be a crime
you're the part of the problem, retard.

biometrics have always been able to be compelled from living people

the law treats them like a key, not like a password which is covered under the 5th amendment

but the easy way to stop this is to shut down your phone when the cops bust in, that way it reverts to needing a password or pin to unlock

>iPhone 6
I forgot it was still 2014, you forget that with the iPhone 7 came the 2nd generation of Touch ID
Source that isn't the NY Post or equiv.?

Or just don't do anything criminally unlawful or otherwise sensitive on a phone. Why is that so hard to understand. They are not secure devices period.

The only difference between an alive and a dead body for a non shit fingerprint scanner (not Apple's case afaik) is the current and the temperature, and both can be easy spoofed with a thin prothesis.

iCADAVERS BTFO

I had, HAD 3 cousins who didn't grow out of middle school so they kept smoking weed into college. One day they suddenly started getting ill but kept smoking pot like always (they all did bongs together on the weekends). Anyway one day one of them starts coughing blood so they go to the ER and are placed in the ICU. Unfortunately they got septic shock and all died a few days later.

>tl;dr
Recreational drugs always pose a risk to human health and in the case of my family members it made them too stupid to stop (they smoked since high school) once they got the flu so it killed them.

>Recreational drugs always pose a risk to human health
So what? It's your personal freedom to do whatever you want as long as it doesn't harm someone else. You're literally saying we should ban alcoholic drinks. Why not ban coffee and cigarettes while we're at it? Why not make it a law that people shouldn't eat dirt otherwise they'll be jailed? Why not make a law that forbids eating sugar or fast food?

Not one you are arguing with.
Also I agree with you... but,
I live in social welfare country. These alcoholics, smokers, and drug addicts (we have wery few of those) end up wasting time of doctors and wasting taxes paid by all (and they pay wery little tax since their income is shit).

Freedom is more important commie.

It's not the same as criminalizing drugs. Stopping stupid people from harming themselves has always been the goal of instating governments in society. The only question is how far should the government go to keep people and yeah we could reduce obesity and DUIs and whatnot by implementing laws that forbid the things that cause that but then we'd all be essentially animals in cages.

However putting laws in place to punish those who consume recreational drugs should never be phased out because of the amount of short and long term damage it causes to people especially teens. And like said it puts on strain on society to waste resources on people that would have never needed help in the first place if they had never touched recreational drugs. If drugs suddenly became legal hospitals would have day-long wait times and the national guard would have to step in to help police states. It would be chaos.

In the end you have to remember most men can barely compete with the intelligence of a mouse.

They also get your fingerprints while you are asleep...dont you trust me? Well try to PUT A FINGER IN YOUR ASS.

>freedom is unimportant because some people are dumb
Then do a public education campaign like around smoking instead of making everything illegal.
Or add taxes on to pay for your "free" healthcare.

Completely agree. Except for commie part. I did not choose this systemd. And there doesn't seem to be completely un-commied countries around.

Lol

>>freedom is unimportant because some people are dumb
Except it is but like everything too much of a good thing can be bad.

>Then do a public education campaign like around smoking instead of making everything illegal.
It's already been done and it hasn't done jack shit. In fact informing teens of how dangerous things are only seems to coax them into doing it more.

>Or add taxes on to pay for your "free" healthcare.
Now THAT'S just straight up socialism which is worse than communism.

Don't worry, they don't waste too much time. The doctors always tell them to fuck off and stop smoking unless they're literally near death. Also, they don't waste tax money (at least not most of it) since they're also the part of the economy. All the money they spend on booze and cigarettes is also taxed.

>Stopping stupid people from harming themselves has always been the goal of instating governments in society
The whole point of a government is to stop people from harming each other, not harming themselves. If a government does anything more it's a commie/totalitarian state.
>It's not the same as criminalizing drugs
Alcohol and caffeine are drugs. Sugar is more hazardous to health than some drugs, especially since it's the main reason people are overweight. Cut all sugar out of your diet but keep consuming the same amount of calories and you'll get twice as healthy and won't get fat.
>puts on strain on society to waste resources on people that would have never needed help in the first place if they had never touched recreational drugs.
This would only apply to socialist countries. And isn't entirely correct. People are currently wasting money on keeping retarded people alive.
>If drugs suddenly became legal hospitals would have day-long wait times
False and irrelevant. Teens are getting morbidly drunk each day and die from overdrinking every year. There'd be a similar number of deaths. You could always make a law stating that drunk or high people won't be given medical help.

>informing teens of how dangerous things are only seems to coax them into doing it more.
Survival of the fittest. Anyone who clearly doesn't want to live has a right to harm themselves.
>freedom is unimportant
Stop posting.

Harming yourself harms other people long term. A mother smoking crack won't be a good mother, will she?

You're right but the damage those things do people and the ones around them isn't the same as crack.

Correct, keeping the weak alive is never going to benefit society long term. Evolution has always killed off the stupid/unfit/sick to leave room for better organism to thrive.

True more or less. They only waste money when they get cancer and such. And my small country has limited doctors and medicaments and equipment to deal with that...
And their bad habits do pay into economy (discounting cigarettes and alcohol they bring from my neighbour poland...). But they buy cheapest cancer inducings cigs and crappiest alcohol because of those taxes.
Also I really hate paying insane tax on the little of alcohol that I use because of them.
I would really like full capitalist country where they would have to pay out of their own pockets more.

>MY 3 RETARDED COUSINS DIED FROM BEING RETARDED, IT MUST BE THAT DEVIL LETTUCE

Retards are retards, with or without drugs. Your downie cousins died from not getting help with a potential life threatening sickness. Your irrational thought process makes me think your whole family is retarded.

Most of my family member have middle class homes and graduated college in less than 4 years. My cousins did okay in middle school as well but it all went downhill in highschool.

The devil lettuce made them retarded and it apparently made you retarded as well if you think it didn't.

Having a middle class home and getting a degree that anyone can achieve with a little effort does not cancel out retardation. Your cousins were retarded before and after weed or any drug they wanted to use

>the datamining proceeds after physical death

>proceeds
gets more involved
Hey OP here just wanted to say you're fucking retarded
I am hereby using my authority as original poster (OP herein after) to ban you from posting in my thread.
Weed did not make your brothers retarded, that is called a coincidence. And even if it did make them retarded, what is your excuse? Second hand smoke?

OP again
>My cousins did okay in middle school as well but it all went downhill in highschool.
Surely this has nothing to do with the fact that everyone changes when becoming a teen? Maybe being in middle school hid your genetic retardation and then when their life got tougher it showed.

You make me wish all drugs were legal

this

Every single time you post, you remind me age is just a number and jail is just a room.

>my cousins died of weed

Are you literally retarded?

you can disable touch id.

the conversation started on recreational weed

not to mention crack addicts don't need to be put in jail, they need rehabilitation. jail just helps to cement their spiral to rock bottom faster and makes it harder for them to recover

Drugs not used for health issues should be banned, that's a fact

Stupid worthless potheads, I hope you all get your shit laced and die.

Saying this only effects drug dealers is like saying only drug dealers use phones. Maybe someone is killed, they open their phone, and find you talking about how your employer is doing shady shit. Maybe the cops are paid off by your employer. Now they have a reason to go after you. Or maybe you say something that the current governing party disagrees with, and they find it on your dead friend's phone. Its easy to blow it off when they bring up one of the four horsemen of the information apocalypse, but security means you have to think like people are out to get YOU instead.

>its bad for you so we should ban it

no, they're using dead peoples fingerprints for their parallel construction

the most valuable thing for intelligence agencies is to make it seem like things are secure. if they were able to get round any phone security do you think they would tell anyone?

when enigma was cracked do you think the allies would be shouting about it?

retarded people wil hurt themselves, making dangerous substances legal only gets rid of retards

Literally everything poses a risk to Hyman health.

have you been to mexico recently?

Cartels are only that powerful because drugs are illegal and government corruption is rampant from local to federal levels

Make them legal and tax it and they lose a tremendous amount of their monetary flow, allowing proper government to be put in place without the cartels being able to kill whoever runs for office

This.

I pay all the taxes in Russia as individual entrepreneur and I also smoke weed. We have public medicine and commercial medicine. Any of these will save your ass if things turn really bad. USA just sucks. Btw, never got any problem with weed even though I've been smoking for 3 years. Plus weed is not legal in Russia.

Honestly i think fast food should be treated like cigs. Taxed heavily and not be sllowed to market towards children

the underlying thought behind the taxation fits, doesn't work like its intended but it does give the government a bunch of dollaroos

Price drives decisions. I would also agree with directing that income directly into our healthcare system

Lmao, the study they're sensationalizing never even made it into a peer-reviewed journal. That shit's bogus.

I don't even smoke, bro. I'm in grad school for computational neuroscience, and this shit comes up a lot. Drugs and their effects on the brain, believe it or not, can be of great interest to people who haven't even found the time to play with them.

In my years of research and study, I haven't come across a shred of evidence that would support your outrageous claims.
