At Apple’s secretive Global Police Summit at its Cupertino headquarters, cops from seven countries learned how to use a host of Apple products like the iPhone, Vision Pro and CarPlay for surveillance and policing work.
Such bs. Read the article. They just want police to use iPhone apps.
I work at a company that is developing a carplay app for the police. All it will do is help them get to incidents quicker and make their and the diapatchers lives easier can confirm nothing spooky.
Yeah, this is pretty stupid. “Oh no! The cops use CarPlay??” and “omg they developed an iOS app, the horror!”
It’s a process pigs use iOS next they are selling icop robots and I drones are unaliving people.
Man this one of the most slippery slopes I’ve seen in a while.
There’s red hat linux being used by the government. When are we getting the red hat kill drones?
Also, military drones and robots already exist without apple markup and are being made with mostly consumer parts now, in case you haven’t been keeping up with the Ukraine and Gaza conflicts. Best just get prepared because if the police want them it won’t matter who sells it to them.
