    You know what’s creepy/weird?
    I’m French and I’ve heard of this on:
    - LTT
    - Louis Rosemmann
    - You
    - Some news sites in English (Bloomberg or something I guess)
    But I’ve barely seen anything about in here in France.
    I’ve found one article from a major news network here, a couple of weeks ago, but that’s basically it.
    The rest is some random news networks…
    Big L for French journalism.

    @TheDeceptiveHero Год назад +94

    Your analysis of the “suspicion requirement” is on point. If the police was sure/had enough indicia you committed a crime at that time, they would simply arrest you. That “requirement” means nothing. The police just has to say that they “think” you might be a murderer, and they can do whatever they want; even if it turns out later that you’re “just” a protester.
    Same goes for needing a judge’s permission, because it’s opt-out, not opt-in. To give permission they just need to put their name on the application letter; but if they deny it, they have to write a multi-page rationale. Just to be clear how the incentives are set, and it doesn’t particularly help that their average workload is already too high due to staff shortages.

    Not that surprising, since France has been slowly falling. At first, they expressed their desire that everyone displayed their identity online, and were experimenting with a program forcing you to scan your face in order to access online government services (with no alternative, look up Alicem).
    More recently, they were experimenting with facial recognition in the cities of Lyon and Reims (without telling anyone), and are looking to expand that for the Olympic games and afterwards.

    this touches on one of the biggest thing irritated me about Andoird claims since i got my G1
    the way i understood all these *PERMISSIONS* at the time, was that there was some sort of a middleman/supervisor type program through which every apps requests would come through, and if it was an officially listed permission (and the user allowed it) then it would be let through. if either of those was not then it would be rejected. or even better it would have been blocked from the play store as a false claim and just reject it.
    it blew my mind when years later i found out that its essentially a promise/trust system.
    and the way it was found out was - again, years later - someone discovered this by accident.
    with all the security experts that used androids as personal devices i really expected it to have been called out as b.s. from the get go, but since none of it was called out i just went along believing that it was secure.

    My first Android was Samsung Galaxy S2 when it was released 11 to 12 years ago approximately. I used it a bit, and as a security researcher I immediately threw it in favor of blackberry instead. If I recall correctly, GGL's policy about how Android should (or rather by default) be deployed: eg allow unknown app sources is a JOKE. This is a big attack vector I saw back then, so I'm not that surprised this will actually happens.
    A couple years back when the vaxx and antivaxx people are bringing that everyone will be implanted with a chip (so here I heard the news at least), I chuckled again, afterall these years people did not understand that the chip is already on their hand, they just need to be woken up using what the gov called COVID exposure notification app or whatever BS they came up with. I'm not vaccinated, don't have vaccine card and I'm not antivaxx either. I saw it as gov in play, or whoever behind them.
    Right now I only use what people call 'feature phone', basically android without GGL and very minimalistic usability due to limited screen size, I can modify the ROM to 'lockdown' or 'paranoid' mode if necessary to minimize data leak. I choose this as a digital detox phone but also I want to give a huge middle finger to the people behind these kind of surveillance.

Your phone knows your face, finger prints and voice. I've seen on tv the American secret service setting up a command post when Trump was in south Korea and in a nearby park there was a protest. With a click of the mouse they pulled up everyone's cell phone who was at the protest and the ones colored red was a person who said something negative about Trump. They clicked on one and it took them to every single social media platform these people are on. And thats the kinda crap they choose to show you.

    So I guess this is the big question: Is France going to use Pegasus or are they going to develop a spyware of their own? You missed one possibility there -- infiltrating the devices not after they are manufactured, but before they are sold. They don't need to make a deal with Samsung or Apple -- any part of the delivery chain can be attacked. Targetting the resellers seems like a practical choice. This won't do for covert mass surveilance, but they can target only certain shops that are popular among communities that are of interest to them. If it's too expensive to infiltrate all devices, they can only infiltrate some devices (i.e. have a guy inside the company who hands over the proper package when a certain customer arrives). Such a phone could be modified on a hardware level, using more or less sophisticated schemes (ranging from CPU replacement to simple old-school bugs -- the listening devices), or a software level. I suppose you could flash a modified version of the OS to the device and create an illusion that it's the same OS (e.g. you mimic the release schedule of the original OS, sign them with certificates that are built into your OS etc).

    So about the context of the new bill: it has been written for the Olympic Games of 2024, not after Nahel's death. By the way, most of the "protests" were just riots and had quite nothing to do with Nahel's death.

      And by the way, no one really talked about it in France sadly. The law didn't make the headlines and no one seems to really understand what's going on here. These undemocratic and illiberal Olympic Games have been an excuse for a lot of stuff lately in France.

    You didn’t mention the fact that the police lied about what happened and the third party video disproved them which is what drew people to heavily protest.

    i'm actually surprised with how good you are at just riffing without a script, i am a content creator as well so i truly apricate how naturally good you are at going without a script, I mean it doesn't sound like you're reading but damn if you are reading without sounding like you're reading, that's a talent in and of it self.
