I mean, I see “leaked” videos of protests in authoritarian countries like China and just wonder why they dont just like make a backdoor that disables videos from being recorded. Or use some sort of 0-day exploit that installs malware on their phones and disable cameras.

I mean, I can’t be the only one that thought of it, right? Surely someone in the government would’ve thought of it.

Wonder why such tactic isn’t being used.

    Looking at how bad our current system is, there’s clearly no need to prevent the videos from getting out because the officer can get away with it despite that.

    And even if the officer doesn’t, the department can just scapegoat them and just keep doing the same things.

    All the more reason to not waste a 0-day or risk the knowledge of a backdoor getting out.

      Damn, this is so depressing.

      I mean I guess they won’t have to do censorship anymore, with AI, they could just lie and say its deepfake or whatever.
