>Own a rifle? Got a scope to go with it? The U.S. government might soon know who you are, where you live and how to reach you.
>That’s because the government wants Apple and Google to hand over names, phone numbers and other identifying data of at least 10,000 users of a single gun scope app, Forbes has discovered. It’s an unprecedented move: Never before has a case been disclosed in which American investigators demanded personal data of users of a single app from Apple and Google.
>According to an application for a court order filed by the Department of Justice (DOJ) on September 5, investigators want information on users of Obsidian 4, a tool used to control rifle scopes made by night-vision specialist American Technologies Network Corp. The app allows gun owners to get a live stream, take video and calibrate their gun scope from an Android or iPhone device. According to the Google Play page for Obsidian 4, it has more than 10,000 downloads. Apple doesn’t provide download numbers, so it’s unclear how many iPhone owners could be swept up in this latest government data grab.
Does this mean you could live stream what you're viewing through your rifle scope? Some narcissistic mass shooter might be interested in something like this.
I'm conflicted. This data might help them stop crimes but also freedom ya know?
>I'm conflicted. This data might help them stop crimes but also freedom ya know? Freedom? What about all these corporations sharing data with each other to create a system that undermines the federal government? Social media sharin data with credit companies that affect your credit score based on shit you post.
The social credit system in the west is already here but it's behind a curtain they never want you to know about.
Anthony Lee
They deserve it for trusting Google, or their government, which are more or less becoming the same thing.
William Perez
If someone doest put one of these politicians down soon this shit is never going to stop. These fucking tyrants are getting way too cocky.
James Barnes
What crimes is this going to stop? Virtually no one is killed by rifles in the US, even fewer are killed at range.
Christopher Murphy
this, it's just rolling up the low hanging fruit. smart people are already dug in.
Josiah Reed
>This data might help them stop crimes but also freedom ya know? Yah, because niggers are using nightvision scopes with this app
Caleb James
Nice legs but the severe lack of tits is a damn shame
Jackson Peterson
>feds >stopping crimes
Hahahaha the only time they stop a crime is when they are the ones b8ing some retard into doing the crime.
Owen Taylor
Is it too late for all of use to sign up with this app?
Christopher Green

David Martinez
They should of have figured out how to mil dot and use a calculator like the rest of us
Liam Perry
They're daring us to tell them no, this shit is unconstitutional. It may look like the leftist corporate media is failing to get people to stop supporting 2A, but these gungrabbers are still winning when shit like this keeps happening.
Dominic Clark
Ouch.. I use the Nikon scope app
David Perry
Hard body. Crappy hair.

Everyone I know stopped even searching for firearm related material with a google browser. Anyone buying firearms or accessories over the internet (or with a credit card) is really just sending an itemized inventory to the ATF. When private sales are finally banned I suspect most of the people I know will never purchase another firearm.
Austin Wood
Stop crime? Are you literally fucking retarded? are you a leaf or europoor with a vpn? Jesus christ, fucking kill yourself you braindead drooling faggot.
Asher Scott
>This data might help them stop crimes How the fuck does it help them do that?
Adam Butler
Why don’t we all just download it to fuck their numbers up.

>The Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) department is seeking information as part of a broad investigation into possible breaches of weapons export regulations. It's looking into illegal exports of ATN's scope, though the company itself isn't under investigation, according to the order. As part of that, investigators are looking for a quick way to find out where the app is in use, as that will likely indicate where the hardware has been shipped. ICE has repeatedly intercepted illegal shipments of the scope, which is controlled under the International Traffic in Arms Regulation (ITAR), according to the government court filing. They included shipments to Canada, the Netherlands and Hong Kong where the necessary licenses hadn't been obtained.
Looks like the FBI is only after users in other countries. AKA non-Americans BTFO
Grayson Smith
everyone should listen to the wise leaf and sign up
Elijah Robinson
can (((Tim Cook))) (((Tim Cook))) any harder? he's already ADL'd multiple apps what a bathhouse POS!
This is a First, Second, Sixth but most importantly Fourth Amendment violation. It's none of the government's business what you do with legal software on equipment you own.
John Gomez
Irrelevant if they deliberately or accidentally target Americans in this dragnet.
Liam Nelson
Why yes, all Jow Forums users should indeed sign up
It's a shitty app with only 2 stars. Bad precedent though.
Logan Ward
It's just another action that goes against the constitutuon. It will be fought and the scotus will deem it as excessive gov overreach. It used to not go that far before the angry mobs would settle the matter. There's no justice like angry nob justice.
So theoretically I could have this fancy scope, attach an rc car to the trigger, walk out 500 yards and do target practice on my own head?
Jacob Davis
Don't post this pic, it is too good.
Owen Rodriguez
Could someone set this up with a tripod like this, put some servos on the thing, and set up a remote trigger pull? I guess in theory this could be used for nefarious purposes. But so what?
Wait a second! This is Trump's america. Why is this happening! I'm so surprised! Someone please inform Trump about this!
Maybe if we start a petition!!!111!!1!!!!1!!1!!111?
Maybe this is 4dchess

It's likely in anticipation of "Go pro" type shootings where it being broadcast is more the priority than the efficacy of the firearms platform for the job.

Carson Richardson
Butterface, butterbreasts, butterhair. Otherwise super hot.
This is only the beginning. Just wait until a democrat is elected president again. Anyone who has ever visited Jow Forums or the_donald or posted a Pepe image macro will be sentenced to life in prison for being a Nazi.
