RE: The full court press for gun control in Texas has unintended consequences; and people there are safer, as a direct result!

in #informationwar5 years ago

I have already told you that no one has the right to limit another citizen's movement against their will. This is legally kidnapping, so any sane person woyld oppose it's use. That said;

There is no reason to limit this "app", as it us not technically feasable. It can never work, that is why the Police do not use it. They use the microwave transmitter version, with Very limited results!

The worst you could do, with an offensive app; is it would be possible to shut down your opponent's cell phone. This has been shown in court to be assault, so it is illegal already. If, in the comic books, you could make this "app" function; it would also be considered assault.

Of the six vehicles at my house, None (even the on star equipped) of them could be affected by the Internet. Almost 100% of those so attacked, would not even notice, as no function would change.

Those hacking cars for fun, are currently most impressed by controlling wipers. He had a hard link into his own car, and had expended several weeks of coding; just to reach his own wipers!

Since interducting personal Communications is already illegal ( if you shut down a 911 call, etc.); shutting down their ability to leave, would also be illegal, in the same fashion.

Sort:  

Illegal to use.

Not illegal to own.

Like you've pointed out, a rifle can stop most cars.

But you're not against owning rifles.

Certainly it's illegal to shoot a hole in someone else's radiator.

But developing and selling the StopDead app would not cause any harm.

The app itself does nothing (just like a gun). It's only intended to protect people from getting hit by a dangerous vehicle.

It's not an "offensive" weapon.

Do you believe this app should be made illegal and or highly restricted?

As I told you, this app is IMPOSSIBLE! It can NEVER be functional, so why are you so fascinated by a fantasy? You would whip out your phone, open the app, send the signal, and be smashed flat....

Why bother making something that is a total fantasy, illegal? Should we make Kryptonite illegal, or just restrict it? They are equally possible....

I did not intend to shoot the radiator, IF I HAD to stop a vehicle, I would destroy the engine block, not the radiator. The stop is instant that way.

I still applaud Texas for loosening the restrictions of firearms. History has proven that this will reduce gun violence.

Have your app (or Kryptomite), with my blessings, just don't bet your life on it!

It's a hypothetical thought experiment.

(IFF) such an app was developed (THEN) do you believe it should be illegal or highly restricted? (Y/N)

I am an Electrical Engineer, this is my field, and it is impossible. The concept is flawed, and hypothetical questions should at least be possible!

I believe that the Government should provide for the common defense, and mitigate arguments between states, which is their Constitutional Job! They have no other job.

You can have your Kryptonite app with my blessings. point it at anything you want. But don't be offended when I laugh at you while you waste battery power.

I want the government to butt out of my life, as the Founding Fathers intended!

It is no different than these damn 'smart meters' that are a fire hazard; they have forced onto every house! It is failed electronics, that is badly designed, that allows them to monitor power usage in real time. Until it burns your house down....
