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.
In a quick read
What I expect to see: How apple enables police to invade our privacy
What I actually see: 3 apps that digitize paperwork and help police do thier job on iPhone, and CarPlay
Conclusion: It looks like WWDC but for the cops. It is nothing wrong to use iPhone or whatever phone to make work more efficient. It is a tool after all.
Such bs. Read the article. They just want police to use iPhone apps.
Yeah, this is pretty stupid. “Oh no! The cops use CarPlay??” and “omg they developed an iOS app, the horror!”
