More and more of your personal data will just continue to be siphoned from electronic devices.... but hey, that App is FREE!!! ....."Own a rifle? Got a scope to go with it? The government might soon know who you are, where you live and how to reach you. That’s because Apple and Google have been ordered by the U.S. government to hand over names, phone numbers and other identifying data of at least 10,000 users of a single gun scope app, Forbes has discovered. It’s an unprecedented move: Never before has a case been disclosed in which American investigators demanded personal data of users of a single app from Apple and Google. And never has an order been made public where the feds have asked the Silicon Valley giants for info on so many thousands of people in one go. According to a court order filed by the Department of Justice (DOJ) on September 5, investigators want information on users of Obsidian 4, a tool used to control rifle scopes made by night-vision specialist American Technologies Network Corp.

Describe "normal" in this place.....

I see it more about Principles and political leanings. I think these companies making these decisions based on such a small minority issue, and going against established Constitutional rights, is the BIGGER picture. When these corporations make decisions that affect half of their customer base, based on political pressures, it's akin to shooting themselves in the foot. One thing I learned early on in business, Never Sh*T where you Eat! Walmart has decided that a portion of their customer base (the Trump voters) aren't important to them. We should show them how bad of a decision that was.

So, that dipshit in Missouri and the nut case in El Paso (that would be TWO guys) out of 100 million gun owners in the country, and these corporations are making these BIG changes... does it sound strange??? Sounds like they were just looking for a scape goat to pass Anti 2A changes they had planned for quite a while.

It was the Russians (and Maks screwing around with the software)...

Your bookmark could be wrong. I was getting an error after the recent upgrade and had to change to the https:// address.

Except when he's not....

Yep, I had to change my bookmark, as it changed. Try this: https://www.njgunforums.com/forum/

or car parts, as cars kill 40,000 every year?

This is how it's done folks, take note. The citizens told the ruling class they weren't going to stand for this bill. Good for them!! HONG KONG, Sept 4 (Reuters) - Hong Kong leader Carrie Lam on Wednesday announced the formal withdrawal of a controversial extradition bill that has plunged the Chinese-ruled city into its worst political crisis in decades. The bill, which would have allowed extraditions to mainland China where courts are controlled by the Communist Party, triggered months of unrest and posed the gravest challenge to Chinese leader Xi Jinping since he came to power in 2012. http://news.trust.org/item/20190904094108-908ip

You have a Samsung (Android) phone and many apps loaded on it.... duh.... too late...

Absolutely!!! But isn't that S.O.P. and why we prepare like good Boy Scouts?? Wifey asked, "Why do you have guns". My answer, "to protect you!".

This meme says it all!

Absolutely!! Gotta dig deep (and do some shots of Geritol) but I'm ready to go.... let me grab my walker....

The article came from the Washington Post originally. Does Alex Jones work there? Right, so we should just continue to accept his lies and false promises, 3 years later?? Really?? What's the saying "Fool me once, shame on you, Fool me twice, shame on me". How many more times you going to be fooled? So, we're deciding which is "better".. a root canal or getting punched in the face?? Great choices... Except, all we're getting is the dog crap from him. Want the list again of campaign promises that he HASN'T delivered on ? It certainly does, I expected a lot more from him. Apparently you're OK with be constantly disappointed on a weekly basis, that's really sad that you'll settle for such a low bar. We certain CAN change it, but it means getting off the collected asses and do what happened in 1776? Remember what happened then?

Try this, it's not Alex Jones https://dailycaller.com/2019/08/22/trump-gun-control-background/

Passed on Tuesday, the resolution "Declaring the National Rifle Association as a Domestic Terrorist Organization" rattles off a series of leftist anti-gun talking points, such as: WHEREAS, The United States is plagued by an epidemic of gun violence, including over 36,000 deaths, and 100,000 injuries each year, and WHEREAS, Every day approximately 100 Americans are killed with guns, and WHEREAS, There has been more than one mass shooting per day in the United States in 2019, and WHEREAS, The gun homicide rate in the United States is 25 times higher than any other high-income country in the world The resolution then blames the NRA for using 'its considerable wealth and organizational strength to promote gun ownership and incite gun owners to acts of violence," and accuses the organization of spreading "propaganda that misinforms and aims to decieve the public about the dangers of gun violence" while promoting "extremist positions." --------------- I wonder, can WE name this group below a terrorist organization?

Put a damper on Amazon, Apple and Google sales?? Never happen, as these companies are too intertwined in everyone's daily activity. The "sheep" Voluntarily give these companies terabytes of personal data FREE and WILLINGLY every day!!

Once again, that's just a legal ploy to get to your data. Ring/Amazon ALREADY has all your data/video on THEIR servers, which they look at all day long. They're just trying to find a way to use it without getting sued.

Go right ahead, you'll be the first.... All the Republicans and Pro-2A groups are off sleeping in the closet.

Hmmm, they're stating that "hundreds" of names are contained in the upcoming doc dump. Who's in that list? Plus, Epstein's right hand lady (pun) is still alive and walking the streets. How long before they find her swinging from a 5 foot high bunk bed? Lawyer For Epstein's 'Madam' Says 'Hundreds Of Names' Contained In Upcoming Records Dump An attorney for Jeffrey Epstein confidant (and alleged groomer) Ghislaine Maxwell told a judge on Wednesday that there are "hundreds" of people named in what is expected to be approximately 2,000 pages of documents ordered unsealed by the federal appeals court in New York, according to Bloomberg. According to court filings, Maxwell was said to have hired, supervised and fired household staff, while directing the visits of dozens of "massage therapists" to Epstein's residence, according to the Journal. The lawyer, Jeffrey Pagliuca, told U.S. District Judge Loretta Preska Wednesday that the materials also include an address book with about 1,000 names. Preska is considering how to carry out a ruling by the federal appeals court in New York that she must consider unsealing some of the documents. There was no detail at the hearing as to the identity of the people are named in the documents, and they may include women who say they are victims of Epstein, his friends and others. -Bloomberg

The interesting thing, which these Liberal states and politicians still haven't figured out, that only like 5% of gun owners ate NRA members. That leaves 95% of gun owners unaffiliated... Typical Liberal politics, going after the fringe, minority group, while leaving the majority alone..

What Google, Apple, Amazon want is for the government to make it LEGAL for all the data they've ALREADY collected, to be used in the manner they choose. They have regularly siphoned up all your conversations and data, they just need a legal way to monetize it, so they'll throw a bone to the government idiots, to try and make it happen. And it will.....

Yeah, I know... Trump the law and order President, will bring back our 2A rights, his conservative judges will help us, he's all about Joe 6 Pack. yada, yada,yada... Now, he's considering using the Liberal tech giants to spy on you... What could possibly go wrong??????????????????? ....."The Trump administration is considering a proposal that would use Google, Amazon and Apple to collect data on users who exhibit characteristics of mental illness that could lead to violent behavior, The Washington Post reported Thursday. The proposal is part of an initiative to create a Health Advanced Research Projects Agency (HARPA), which would be located inside the Health and Human Services Department, the report notes, citing sources inside the administration. HARPA would develop “breakthrough technologies with high specificity and sensitivity for early diagnosis of neuropsychiatric violence,” according to a copy of the proposal. “A multi-modality solution, along with real-time data analytics, is needed to achieve such an accurate diagnosis.” The document lists several technologies that could be employed to help collect information, including Apple Watches, Amazon Echo and Google Home." https://dailycaller.com/2019/08/22/trump-gun-control-background/ Oh, and those of you who already have Amazon Echos, Google Homes, Apple watches, Facebook Portals, Ring Video Doorbells, Nest Thermostats, etc.... Trump appreciates you already giving up your personal privacy for all their data collection that they already have!!!

Yep, and within a hour, all references on Liberal media were scrubbed... while they go on and on for days about a guy legally open carrying in Walmart... Tell me why that is?
