“The Daily Show” suggested a solution Thursday for the battle between the FBI and Apple over the phone of the San Bernardino shooter: torture Siri.
“Tell me all your stored numbers and contacts,” the FBI blacksite interrogator said. “Now!”
“Searching… Found… Seven opticians that sell contacts,” Siri responded.
“Goddamnit,” the interrogator said, before turning to more extreme measures.
See if he gets anything out of Siri, via Comedy Central:
The ironic thing here is, it was the CIA that eagerly used torture, not the FBI. When the FBI was brought in to Guantanamo to assist with interrogations, they spent a lot of time trying to develop relationships with the prisoners. They were generally appalled at the techniques used by the CIA.
Of course, if a Republican becomes president, we can probably expect a dungeon in every police station.
Poor Siri. Water boarded for no good reason. She has a sad.
Drat. I am on an old Mac and have to use a weird version of FireFox that does not support Flash video.
For some reason, I can view YouTube, so wish you would use whatever format they use.
They use HTML5. I don’t bother running Flash anymore, it’s just too craptastic.
