YouTube Description
as posted by the channelThree surveillance stories — one through-line. The FBI read deleted Signal messages from a defendant's iPhone using a loophole in Apple's notification system. Apple patched it in iOS 26.4.2 — after a journalist exposed it. Flock Safety license plate readers are tracking immigrants, monitoring women who've had abortions, and being used by officers to stalk romantic partners. And Congress just passed a 45-day extension of FISA 702 warrantless surveillance while fighting over a 3-year deal that still has no warrant requirement. Former prosecutor Melba Pearson breaks it all down. Update your iPhone NOW. Signal → Settings → Notifications → No Name or Message.
