No more live updates when France is attacked again then.

What the fuck are you talking about you retard. Lots of bands / comedians etc. don't want their performances being recorded, how is this jewish related
Easton Powell
>i was going to see that band live but wait somebody uploaded a cellphone recording of it nevermind
Grayson Flores
Ya this wont backfire at all
Joshua Morales
>sorry but you clicked agree
Adam Torres
How long until we get IR light in the street to prevent recording shit? It'll make us safer goys, don't you worry
Carson White
>Police start using the same technology >Suddenly people can't film riots and police bashing deluded lefties and post edited versions of their recordings online >Media and Leftards get buttmad because of "muh censorship"
Just letting it out there guys
James Ramirez
I actually support this, too many people whip out their phones in concerts. no one cares about your shaky, bad audio portrait mode video.
Camden Lewis
Good.
I fucking hate looking for a song and finding some fucked up phone recording, like that shiteating quality is worth looking at.
Isaac Diaz
You go to a concert to lisen to live music faggot - not to show other people that you have been to a concert. This is a GOOD thing.
This has nothing to do with copyrights.
Chase Jenkins
Companies patent things all the time. It's better to have something and not use it than need it and can't.

it isn't for youtube it is for themselves

No, it's for facebook to inflate their ego and narcissism.
Logan Turner
They won't. No one uses iOS devices outside of american.
Liam Scott
well unless the law changes, i cant imagine the police will.
as for apple, are they really doing this? seems like they are prepared to shoot them selves in the foot, its the whole xbox one DRM fiasco all over again.
they really want their competitors to catch up
Robert Cook
this. Although it is funny seeing the phones flying out of their hands when other people around them start cheering.

BWAAAHAHAHAHAAAAHAAHAAHAA@ all applefaggots
this is what happens when you give money to a fascist kike corporation by buying their products.
They will only keep putting restrictions on the device.
suck on a foreskinless cock :^)
Eli Collins
if you use an iphone you literally deserve to get beaten to death by the police i wholeheartedly support this measure
Dominic Long

and since you're an aussie. i put my flim flam in yer moms flop hole.
in all serious though you are right.
Nolan Reed
now where will I find my shitty audio & shaky filmed blurs of music?
Adrian Howard
thats exactly the kind of shit why i dont own apple products, and because im a poorfag atm tbqh.
Connor Perry
>When will cops have this on their cars?
Never, because unlike in Germany the VAST majority of states allow people to take pictures and film in the public space.. Filming the police is perfectly legal in the US and most of Europe.
Caleb Jackson
What is a jailbreak tweak?
This is going to be terrifying, though, when the government starts using it to suppress the spread of information.
Hunter Hughes
That's what you get for buying Apple Samsung masterrace
Carson Lee
Pfft concerts, right. Next thing you know they will use it for information suppresion. Want to record proof? No can't do sorry, you're not allowed.
Dominic Parker
>Get a hold of the signal >Use it at your next civil uprising >People think the government is blocking people from recording >??? >Profit!
James Murphy
checked and kek'd
Levi Evans
good. people will actually have to enjoy the concert theyve gone to see rather than making sure it gets them a few likes on social media
Hunter Allen
this gives people the possibility to block the recording of anything they dont want to be recorded. not long until you will be able to wear a piece of cloth (hat?) that transmits a signal that block people from taking pictures of you.
Easton Murphy
Blocking the filming is not illegal as well.
Luis Nguyen
Literally nobody goes to concerts to not enjoy them but to instead record them and post their videos on social media.
Except you fucking bongs I guess? You're pretty retarded over there.
Luke Perry
Police beats you up for political reasons and you won't be able to prove it.

My mom just got a 6s after using a flip phone for years. I'm legitimately worried.
Christian Long
It actually is I think..Jamming transmissions and sending transmissions to jam other people's radio/TV/WiFi are all against the law, so I don't think sending signals to jam cameras will be legal unless the authorities get some kind of exeption, which seems unlikely.
Luis Williams
Man, if you need this shit to remember concerts you've been to, it's time to cut back on the pot.
the complete opposite actually. bongs are known to go nuts at festivals, american shows are full of superficial girls holding up their phones for the whole time.
Isaiah Torres
How likely is it that this also includes the ability to arrest/fine people carrying now-illegal content?
Fucking wew.
>Apple >not even once
Zachary Foster
Japan does.
Evan King
iPhones are the ticket for the black cock carousel. What does her hair look like?

This is your first mistake.

Zachary Morris
>apple does this >people buy android instead great idea!
Kevin Wilson
Underrated as shit.
Caleb Rogers
Apple actually gives a shit about people's privacy That's why they wouldn't hack the San Bernadino shooters phone for them

Cooper Miller
Fun thing that this was just a media thing. Apple has done it before for the FBI.
Jordan Gonzalez
It will soon be used as a way to make sure we don't record the police abusing their power. Once they can get away with killing whites they'll be coming after us
Jayden Cruz
I understand the spooky implications of this being used to suppress people politically
however, just taking it at face value, it's neato because one of the worst fucking side-effects of smartphones is everyone fucking holding them up to record shitty shitty videos of the band
Ian Jackson
and the technology will be used on every police man at every raid near every refugee center
who an help me make a longer list?
Brandon Martinez
>back to 240p .3gp videos Why? You could always use an Android phone, and if it has the disabled bullshit, hack the fuck out of it.
Brody Scott
>This shit is spooky as fuck.
>Camera permanently on and watching for a certain signal.
>Once signal is detected, your phone is remotely disabled by someone you don't know.
Brandon Perez
This is a good thing. Fuck apple.

Brayden Rivera
I guarantee if it was some whitey school shooter they would do it in a heartbeat
Chase Fisher
You really believe that a SMARTPHONE company cares about the little privacy anyone has anymore?
The whole thing with the shooters is infinitely more likely to be a publicity stunt to at least pretend like people are safe with Apple.
The phone was cracked anyway and nobody's saying how they did it.
They could have very easily just hired whoever from Apple was willing to do it and said nothing.
You are incredibly daft if you believe any company that collects any type of data legitimately cares about how fucking private any of it is.
>t. person who uses your shopping data to decide whether or not your city is worthy of a fucking Fabletics advertisement.

The Libertarian Paradox
This is an invasion of privacy and a step towards authoritarian police statism

This completely reasonable because It's their phone and they can "do what they want with it"

>Make license plate frames with IR LEDs Idiots cant record your car

I'm somewhat OK with this
