Video camera seizure, What are our rights?

[scumdog]

seizure= theft. (legally) ("to forcibly take possession of")

i'd say that's closer to nicked.

Stop trolling (poorly) - where was the 'forcibly' bit?

[scumdog]

Getting them back today at 12, thank god for that!

Awww..now you've gone and ruined potential for some rabid ranting by the KB nincompoop team...

On second thoughts, they'll do that anyway

if it was legally seized, then legally, it was forcibly taken. by definition. mumpty.

funnily when you ask pigs to seal a radar as evidence, they look at you funny and carry on with their bullshit.

[swbarnett]

I know for a fact what sort of technology they have for retrieving files, no point running home and copying off what is "bad"

Only way to seriously beat them is to re-format,

Easier way is to copy the bits the cops want to see onto a band new card and give them that.

that being said I hope you enjoy a tampering charge.

Surely it's not tampering if they get all the footage they're asking for?

Forcibly. 'With force' or something like that. Apparently...


Numpty...

And seal a radar???? Is that like ottering oaths...

I'm curious....what do you do for a crust exactly.....?

[SMOKEU]

I'm pretty sure that if you did that they would be able to tell and you'd be up for a tampering charge. Also - most people cannot delete as well as the police techs can retrieve. Don't be fooled into thinking that it's the beat plod who has his sticky fingers in your technology.

Just gotta be smart!

Formatting the drive won't do fuck all, except for slowing them down by a few minutes while they recover the data.

I'm pretty sure that dd if=/dev/urandom of=/media/* or shred /media/* -f -v -z --iterations=10 will work*

Replace the * with the mount point and you're done, otherwise just overwrite the data by recording over the old footage. Better yet, physically destroy the (micro)SD card. They're not that expensive to replace usually. How could you get charged with tampering data by deleting data on your own device?

Need the SD card equivalent of a boot n nuke disc

scumpuppy made a pun funny
and i thought harley riders were fucking homos 24/7

a crust? i bake my bread.. it's a function of breadmaking that there is crust.

I'm pretty sure that dd if=/dev/urandom of=/media/* will work*

pretty much.

i'll expand on that for those interested.
formatting a drive re-writes the MBR and frees up the FS space for writing over, without actually deleting anything, just telling the drive "you may write between 513 and 20 billlion.." while your shit is actually still between 513 and 20 billion.

you can buy windows "undelete" programs for this. or, if you're not a fucking moron. get linux and do it for free.
