I'm getting used to seeing anti-Apple rants on HN based on very flimsy connections, but this one is egregious: the man's wrongful conviction, the struggle to exonerate himself, and his final justification and liberty have nothing to do with Apple or any 'mistaken' technological evidence, but actually the reverse.
If he'd been carrying a device (back in 1990) that could have located him away from the scene of a crime, then it would have been a help and not a hindrance to his case.
- citizenpaul 4y agoYou really don't know how government and police work. Its sad how many posters on HN have some unrealistic belief in a benevolent government. It probably speaks to how few posters here have had any real world experience dealing with governments beyond the daily procedural stuff like ID's and tax payments.
