Burner phones to be suggested for ban in US

http://www.independent.co.uk/life-style/gadgets-and-tech/news/burner-phones-could-be-made-illegal-under-law-that-would-require-personal-details-of-anyone-buying-a-a6955396.html

This is not technically possible so how do they think they can implement this.

Right now I can import boxes of sims set to global and unregistered.

How the fuck do they believe they can implement a ban on burner phones?
>>
>>53730541
You uh, you can't use those sim cards if you're not a cell phone provider. You don't have the keys, and you don't have the tech to get the keys off of an existing one

its all about making the plebs feel safe. you should know this by now.

>>53730559
But he can't do what he suggested.

I mean, he can buy sim cards but he can't program them and even if he can he can't use them on any networks. This isn't how sim cards work
>>
>>53730558

I can import boxes of globe card from Manila and sun card from Manila set to global. No ID is required for purchase in Manila.
Local carrier will route the traffic, so, they will block all tourists mobile, because that is the "genuine" reason for use.
>>
>>53730558
And? If the SIM belongs to a telco that is not bound by US law (reads, any non-US carrier) its not a problem.
>>
>>53730599
Set to roaming <
>>
They pulled this off some 10 years ago in brazil, it made buying a phone so problematic due to all the paperwork sales went down, carriers got together and fought it, now they sell prepaid sims with preassigned numbers in newstands again.

Sad thing is they actually are very often used by criminals, for shit ranging from scams all the way to blackmailing.
>>
>>53730677

Yea just like Philippines. Infct load in a Philippines sim, you'll receive one or two scam txt messages per day, because phones can be loaded "by text" and villagers will buy themselves one days worth of unlimited texting and spam numbers asking for load for the entire fucking day, in hopes that someone will think the txt is from a relative or some such and actually send through load to the scam phone.

Read the sentence:

No.
That is incorrect.
Terrorists do not communicate by forcing shops.
>>
>>53730599
so they force US carriers to default to block all non-US sim cards by default and whitelist the carriers who are willing to follow their rules (ie not sell readily working sim cards in bulk to random people).
>>
>>53730825
>Terrorists do not communicate by forcing shops.
Oh I am mistaken then. Well the thing is, you can just buy unmarked phones + simcards for like €15 at larger supermarkets. I can understand a lot of people abuse this system.

Cant speak for UK, but in AU prepay sims still require passport or driver license, and, on local carrier level, are purchased through the Vodaphone tore or Optus stores etc, they are pretty thorough, but that doesnt stop roaming sims at all.
>>
Literally all that's going to happen is that they're going to make tech savvy criminals more common. They're going to force Tyrone to learn how to encrypt his phone, use private clients, etc. instead of just buying a burner and thinking he's safe and playing it carelessly.
>>
>>53730851

Pig's fucking arse they do.

You buy a SIM off the shelf at Coles or Woolworths, then you take it home and enter whatever details you like into the web form when you register it.

Nobody ever looks at your ID documents.

>>

I'd be happier with them blocking burner phones than them carrying on trying to block encryption
>>
I doubt this will happen in the land of free market and trade. Side business I'm involved in deals with prepaid sim sales. There was a time when postpaid was king and high sales was what the carrier's board members wanted to display for investors. Not anymore. Prepaid commissions payout huge.

I can't see how putting a required field on personal details during the activation process will make a difference. Unless they're requiring SSN. Doubtful though. Even then, during postpaid days I knew a few that bypassed the SSN verification algorithm.

As far as illegal activities with prepaid, definitely. I know of some illegitimate scenarios that bring in huge margins. GSM termination is one.

M16s (along with all legally owned full auto/select fire weapons) must be registered with the nfa. Sale and trasfer of those weapons are also tracked by the feds. So if person A wants to sell m16 to person B, person B must be legally eligible to own the m16 (going through nfa red tape) and have the weapon transfered to B's name.

Joe Shmoe at the gun show can not by an m16

Fuckin ay. They'll *possibly* grab some detail when you buy a prepaid handset, but like fuck they actually follow through and submit those imei's.

So you have a box of unactivated SIM cards? What then?

Australia has had laws on SIM card activation for a while now, every new mobile activation, pre-paid or post-paid, needs to have your details recorded with 100 points of ID.

You can get a SIM card for free from any old telco, but it won't work without an activation.

Wrong. You can legally transfer a weapon, no paperwork needed. As long as the weapon has the approriate seriel numbers, and is not stolen.
And in gun shows I think they require you to be from that same state and not out of state.

I saw a video where guy was able to buy like 4 guns with no id or paperwork or anything.

A M16 is specifically a Full Auto/Select fire lower part the conforms to
the AR15 platform.
You need a NRA tax tag to legally own a M16 lower (read any full auto/Burst)

I can go to practically go to any gun shop and pick up a AR15 (Semi auto)
without much fuss.

Now buying a M16 lower...wew lad good luck, they start around $16-20K
and require months of paper work and a tax tag.

I just tested this, both msn and yahoo will allow you to make an account without a phone number if you use a recovery email address.

If you want a good email account without the botnet simply use a mailinator mirror email address to create two good accounts on either service. Once both accounts have been made secure your new email accounts by swapping the recovery email address on the good accounts from the mailinator mirror email address to the other good account email address. Not hard my man.

I live in South Africa and burners have been banned for some years now. You need to register every new SIM and all old SIMS that aren't registered are disconnected from all telecoms networks. In the past you could walk into any 7/11 and buy a simcard with a bit of airtime for the equivalent of 1 USD basically.

Totally sucks that the criminals who use these will have to work around the problem. There is no reason why a normal person can't just show ID to buy these if they aren't going to break the law.

It solves the problem that many people buy these phones use them for illegal purposes and by registering them before hand, it will be easier to crack down on criminal activity that involve these.

If you are saying criminals will work around this. Then the simple thing would be to then block what ever workarounds they find as the next step.

If you are then looking at a slippery slope argument, then you should make a point when there is actually a law being passed that won't simply be a good thing to law abiding citizens.
>>
>>53735645
There's a point where you need to draw the fucking line. The amount of terrorists doing this compared to the amount of people just buying phones is absurdly small

>It solves the problem that many people buy these phones use them for illegal purposes and by registering them before hand, it will be easier to crack down on criminal activity that involve these.
It's the same problem with DRM you're not going to catch who you actually want to catch you're just going to catch low level crooks and innocent people, and the low level crooks would probably be busted for something else anyway. Even if this actually did anything the crooks would just change their tactics and probably just start stealing phones which would then implicate innocent people in crimes. You would be obligated to report your phone stolen to avoid having the police bust down your door which is basically hurting the victim of the crime twice.
>>
>>53730541
I have lived in two countries which require ID and proof of residence to activate sim cards, supposedly in an attempt to curb organised crime(both countries had "problems" with gangs or foreign criminals). The effect was startlingly ineffective, turns out the only people who struggled to get sims working were ordinary denizens. Foreign criminals had no trouble and continued business as usual.
It was a remarkably effective way of controlling consumers though, and gave the service providers greater power within the legal structures and made it more difficult for competition to grow.

You are just ignoring my second point then. DRM doesn't hurt innocent people if implemented well. If you have a problem with the implementation and have better suggestions for how it should be implemented then go ahead. The problem at hand is to eliminate potential untrackable vectors for communication of criminals. By the sounds of it, you have no real complain except for the "not going to work clause" which is countered by continue diligence of more laws and enforcement.

All your implications in your post could be solved with simple clauses in the law. None of that matters. If criminal activity is done with a stolen device, it will be treated the same as any other stole tool of crime. Maybe people will be more incline to keep their personals that can be used in a crime more securely in that case. If someone stole your ID and then dropped it at the scene of a murder, you think it matters that they have to come to you for suspicion of murder? Maybe we should do away with IDs because that might happen. Or maybe your arguments are just as dumb as that.
>>
>>53735729
They are mostly used for some form of criminal activity. In the cases where they aren't then it is no a problem. Why does it matter where you draw the line? Your arbitrary line just makes you no better than people who think you should be allowed to kill people if they piss you off in a bar. Neither of which has any logic behind it and neither of which will help society function.

Except for removing their ability to make copies of their property which they're legally entitled to. And disabling their property when they don't/can't authenticate. It's also completely ineffective because pirates just create workarounds.

>If you have a problem with the implementation and have better suggestions for how it should be implemented then go ahead.
For the DRM? I would suggest offering a service like GoG where paying users can receive up to date versions of their games with no restrictions and pirates just have to deal with outdated versions that may contain malware.

For the phones I don't have to offer any suggestions for anything, this is a non-solution to a non-issue. Crooks communicating is not my problem go bust them if you give a fuck about them. The better way to handle them would be to end the "war on drugs" which is where they're getting money from in the first place.

Why the hell would they ban burner phones if they want to catch people? As of right now the NSA collects a ton of information for cell phone locations and software has come a long way for associating burner phones with people and previous burner phones used by a person (look up the SKYNET program for a detailed example of how far they can take this and the CO-TRAVELER and FASCIA programs for evidence that it's likely being done in other areas of the world including the US). All this will do is push people to significantly more secure methods of communication that are much easier to get into and to not screw up and expose yourself with, such as anything going over the now ubiquitous public wifi.

It is axiomatic that its citizens are the number one threat to the people in power. This is the reason that all governments dedicate so many reasons to social control and domestic spying.

20 years ago it would have been inconceivable that the US government would monitor and log all internet and telephony traffic. Now it's the norm. It isn't outlandish to assume that this usurpation of power will continue.

A bunch of faggot hicks with ar-15s doesn't change shit, you'd end up like those idiots in Waco if anyone ever tries anything against the really powerful people.
Plus most of the gun scare is just marketing tactics by the arms manufacturers themselves to get you ameridiots into buying more guns and ammo just in case a new law gets passed.

The 4th Amendment protects my effects and papers from being search without a warrants.

The first amendment protects my right to freely assemble, which the Supreme Court has said is abridged if such assembly is monitored.

The 14th amendment grants me due process.

And the UN Convention on Human Rights, to which the US is a signatory, explicitly states that privacy is a fundamental human right.

The rule of law is the bedrock of Anglo-American law, our society has hastily thrown it away for the illusion of security from an excessively exaggerated threat.

The iPhone marked the end of the internet. It, and the other smartphones thwt followed, allowed more people onto the internet more frequently, the advertising agencies and governments followed.

If they ban burner phones then drug dealers will just buy used cellphones or wi-fi devices and use those free w-fi calling and texting apps.

Their efficiency as a bulwark against government tyranny might be arguable, but they are definitely a bulwark.

Also against it, also think she's right. The Paris guys used so many burner phones that investigators found a couple dozen left over, still in the packaging.

Of all the anti-terror suggestions to come out of the U.S. in the last decade, this one actually makes sense and isn't just security theatre.

You don't need to "encrypt" a phone that's only used to send or receive 1 message. 1 message per phone is the correct ratio when planning politically motivated mass violence (terrorism).

> How the fuck do they believe they can implement a ban on burner phones?
Stop selling them, any SIM card purchase will require your ID. It's easier than you think.
> I can import boxes of sims set to global
Well, technically you can, but nobody will bother with this except maybe actual criminals.

not really

the second ammendment was intended to provide for a militia made of of normal citizens to exist in place of a standing army or even a police force

it was sort of an english tradition you see

these days, we have paramilitary police forces and gigantic army with murder drones.

the second ammendment is a rump policy

>>53739156

They were also know suspects at the time. Banning burner phones would have just shifted their commmunications elsewhere.

If you want to stop terrorism, you have to get to the root cause, instability in the region, instead of playing wack-a-mole with terrorist techniques and leaders.

Current jurisprudence disagrees completely with you.

>Can't register for many websites without a phone number for "security purposes"

How long until we won't be able to use the internet without an internet license that requires a background check?

There were rumblings about something like that a while ago. I don't think anything came of it... yet

just like a bunch of goatfucking farmers out in BFE were no match for us over the past 3 decades in 8 overt conflicts.

right...

>>53739278
Yeah I know what the supreme court said.

But anybody with a cursory knowledge of the culture and circumstances of the period could tell you that ruling was nonsense.

It might be current law, but the current interpretation wasn't the original intent. It just simply was not.
>>
>>53739231
It doesn't matter if they're known or not. The phone log goes like this:

>8:30 new phone A activated
>8:31 new phone B activated
>8:32 A calls B
>8:33 [10 seconds of speech or 1-2 texts, possibly in code]
>10:30 new phone C activated
>etc

Usually a drug dealer wants a single alternate number. Their phone calls go like this:

>8:30 new number activated
>8:31 can i pick up?
>8:32 r u around bro?
>8:33 my friend is lookin
>8:34 you got kush right?
>etc

The difference is the value of the electronic record.

Admittedly in Paris it was one Belgian guy buying all the phones on personal credit like a noob, but the burner phones themselves revealed nothing.

He should have been caught, being a known friend of terrorists, but hey it sux to be Europe right now.

wut?

Scalia, the most vehement suporter of original intent, WROTE the majority opinion!
>>
>>53739440
Scalia claimed to be the most vehement supporter of original intent. That doesn't mean that's what he was.
>>
>>53739447

I'm waiting on an argument...

You said it was obvious to anyone what the original intent was. The Supreme Court, including the standard bearer of "original intent", disagreed.
>>
>>53739516
He wasn't the standard bearer of original intent. He was a conservative, so more often than not, "original intent" served his biases. When it didn't, he was willing to stretch interpretation as needed.

I'm not really interested in trying to convince you. I'm interested in history. I dislike when people distort history and the intentions of people from history to advance their narrow interests. To me, what they meant is a historical concern. To you, what they meant is a contemporary concern. There can be no agreement when we're playing a different game.

>implying the saudi owned american arms manufacturers want to get rid of all the "goat fucking farmers" that constitute a gold mine for them
>implying half of the "goat fucking farmers" aren't trafficking heroin and have more than enough funds for weaponry to fend off your badly equipped and trained afghan lackeys
>implying you've ever had enough troops on the ground to get rid of them
>>
>>53739788
I should also point out that what Scalia advocated was not "original intent", but "texualism". In other words, the idea that we should interpret laws by their literal letter. By that standard, his second amendment interpretation makes even less sense.
