No part of your statements says that DHS obtained a warrant to search and seize his phone. This where DHS is using SchrÃdinger's reasoning: According to DHS, they do not need a warrant because the search was "random" and he was not under any investigation. Yet they told Customs to look for certain things because he was under investigation and he was targeted for a search at the border. It turns out they lied and the search was not random. Such a search requires a warrant. Therefore the search was illegal.

You seem to have ignored the legal problem where if the search is not legal, there can be no crime with destroying the data. Second, I would point out that the data has not been destroyed. It still exists on his phone. It cannot be decrypted at the moment.

Your person and luggage can be searched without a warrant; however, seizure is limited to specific things. Contraband, food, etc. There are conflicting federal court rulings as to whether devices can be searched without a warrant. In this case, DHS was arguing that they did not need a warrant because Turnick was not under investigation yet they knew to search him because he was under investigation.

I am shocked to learn that gambling was happening in this establishment

But how will MS sell—I mean personalize your Windows experience? Here is something I noticed about their widgets: they do not obey Windows privacy settings. If you turn off Location Services, the widgets still locate you.

Every tech reviewer I read or watched says 8GB is fine for the Neo for the average consumer. For more intensive routine work like 4K video editing, you should get a different machine. Some reviewers would like more especially for future proofing but they remind everyone again of the current RAM situation. There is no "glazing" as much as just sensible recommendations.

To me the metric is saying the same thing as "We heard all the complaints with our old turd. As a result, our new turd is shinier."

Again. In Windows, Windows components, Excel, and Outlook have almost all the memory. It does not say cached. It does not say swap. Linux and MacOS designates memory as cached or not.

Dell went private in 2013.

Also it less liability to merely cover them. Flock cannot claim that their tech was "damaged" during the removal by the college if they were not removed.

Describe "0 free memory". When I say it is 100%, I am literally looking at Outlook, Windows services, and Excel taking almost 16GB by themselves. This is not cached memory model of the Linux and MacOS where free RAM is reserved for caching. At 16GB, the "cached memory" on my Windows machine is disk swap as I can see the disk activity.

I am not searching through this forum just because you can't be bothered to retype or paste a link. Also I have to read your mind to determine which of your posts apply? That's a no.

There are lots of things that could be removed from Windows that are unnecessary; however, MS makes it more difficult with each new update and patch. Removing them for the performance is such a hassle that few do it. For example, I don’t have an Xbox but MS deems it that I must have Xbox Gaming installed with each major update. It used to be that you could uninstall it. Now you can remove it but it really is not uninstalled as components still exist; for example all the modules that connect to the Xbox gaming servers still are present.

There are all sorts of service running that do not to be. I don’t have a touch screen yet all components for it cannot be removed. My machine is a desktop not a laptop yet airplane mode exists and cannot be removed. I know because one day it was triggered somehow and I was off the Internet until I rebooted and reset everything.

Again, security researchers could wait until quantum computers have broken 1024 bit RSA before working on countermeasures. Or they could start planning now. I would prefer if they started now.

I have a Windows 11 machine with 16GB. I can say 16GB is not enough as Windows itself is such a bloated mess.

It may be a while before the Neo has one as it uses an iPhone chip that was not designed to work with Thunderbolt. Not the Neo 2 but maybe the Neo 3 will have Thunderbolt.
