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.
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.
Forbes always has misleading, anti-Apple click bait.
When it comes to Apple-related topics, I never click on Forbes articles. Their coverage is inherently misleading, but that strategy must be generating click-through revenue. ¯_(ツ)_/¯
