Victim politics meets Big Brother-style technology, who would have thunk it?
Friday on MSNBC’s daytime programming, host Thomas Roberts explained that in the wake of revelations the iPhone tracks your movements with its operating software, minorities, specifically blacks and Latinos are most vulnerable, since they use their cell phones more than whites according to a Nielsen study.
“Alright, so one day after learning of a hidden iPhone feature that tracks your every single move, there’s new concern that tracking technology purchased by police can lead to racial profiling,” Roberts said. “You are looking at what’s called the ‘Universal Forensic Extraction Device.’ It can copy the entire content of a cell phone including text messages, contacts, GPS data and do it in just minutes. Michigan State Police purchased this device, though we don’t know how exactly they’re using it but civil liberties groups worry that the device endangers the privacy rights of blacks and Latinos. A Nielsen study shows blacks talk on average twice as much each month on their cell phones as white counterparts.”

Getting an iphone soon...
What, the race-baitng poverty pimps did not include women and children, too!?
LMAO @ these fools.
Big corps are EVIL!
Looks like a couple of FLY Fisherman.
For quite some time now it's been pretty obvious that you can't talk on your cellphone with your pants dropped down around your knees so that element of gangbanger style is disappearing.
Then, too, txtng (texting) is forcing them to learn at least one readable spelling convention ~ which is to the good ~ and DICTION has improved to an absolutely remarkable degree. "sewhuzup" doesn't work on cell systems.
I see signs of the Second Coming in all this.
Was there ever any question?
Most telling editorial I have seen “Hit hardest” must be the new code word for guilty of the most crime.
Does MSNBC have any Minorities hosting a Show?
Rachel Maddow is the closest thing they have I think.
She is their token Homosexual minority.
Minorities can afford advanced technology? Who knew
How many “minorities” own an iPhone anyway? 2 or 3?
LOL,good one!
20 or 30 million probably,and most on your dime.
Didn’t Jesse Jr. whine about the I-Pad a few days ago? What is it with race pimps and Apple?
