    Kohberger's cellphone pinged repeatedly near the murder house
    July 9, 2022: Kohberger's phone started connecting to a cellphone tower in
    the area of the 1122 King Road home, where the murders would occur months later.

    Between July 9 and Nov. 7, 2022: Kohberger's phone connected to that same
    tower from about 10 p.m. to 4 a.m. about 23 times. The prosecution has said they don't have evidence Kohberger had direct contact with the home or residents during that time - but they know that his phone was in the area
    at those times.

    Nov. 13, 2022: Kohberger left his apartment in Pullman, Wash. His phone was turned off at about 2:54 a.m. It remained off until about 4:48 a.m. when
    his phone came back on, and his phone activity tracked back to his
    apartment in Pullman.

    Around 9 a.m.: As indicated by cellphone tower pings, his phone returned to
    the area of King Road, stayed for about 10 minutes and then returned to his apartment in Pullman.

    Around 9:30 a.m.: Based on evidence taken from his cellphone, he took a
    selfie giving a thumbs-up in what appears to be his bathroom at his
    residence.

    As always, privacy takes intelligence.
    People with no intelligence will never have privacy.

    Just ask criminals who get caught because their red iPhone turned them in.

    Context. We are talking of recovering data out of formatted and/or
    erased hard disks. Not of privacy.

    You have to learn how to position your post correctly in a thread so
    that it hangs from the proper context, Arlen. Yes, I know that you use
    scripts that make this harder. Not my problem.

    Actually, all Arlen does is "make claims". They are never backed up with anything. The links he does provide never say what he claims they say.

    One time he even tried to link to his website where he and his sock puppets were "discussing facts", when all he was doing was making the same claims. Remember that whopper?

    He is really quite pathetic.

    Tyrone, like nospam, is the "smartest" of the Apple trolls, and yet, all
    the Apple trolls have been told their entire lives that they're stupid.

    What's telling is you can tell an Apple troll a fact ten thousand times,
    and it will NEVER sink into the Apple trolls' brains because of low IQ.
    <https://narkive.com/naY5Ldzb.4>

    The Apple trolls can't possibly earn a diploma because they're completely incapable of processing facts that were repeatedly provided in cites.
    <https://www.njherald.com/story/news/politics/courts/2023/05/26/hayden-harris-army-corporal-murder-trial-xo-testifies/70256187007/>

    It wouldn't matter how many times you prove a fact to the Apple trolls.

    <https://www.njherald.com/story/news/crime/2023/06/08/fort-drum-ny-murder-suspect-phone-records-trial/70301269007/>

    One way I know none of you Apple trolls has the capacity to pass a college
    test is we discussed at length that it was a red iPhone in the Apple ngs.
    <https://misc.phone.mobile.iphone.narkive.com/naY5Ldzb/geofence-warrants>

    The fact that all facts are lost to the Apple trolls is indicative of their
    low IQ, which is why they're herd animals who assume the herd knows best.

    It doesn't matter how many times you prove a fact to you Apple trolls.
    None of you can process facts like a normal adult would process them.

    It's part of why you're Apple trolls after all.

    You *hate* that this red iPhone was used in the commission of the crime.
    So you deny its existence.

    It's what you Apple trolls do.

    There's an (older) chart on page 12 showing iOS vs Android in government:

    I think there are fundamentally different types of people when it comes to
    how well they respond to pure marketing bullshit, where personally, I think Apple owners respond much better to marketing hype than do Android owners.

    But I could be wrong on that as I agree, most people are incredibly stupid.

    Appreciate the correction. I'll accept these facts & recalibrate my >>snobbery.

    There's always three sides to the story -- his side, her side, and the

    Well, to be very clear, I never stated what Kohlberger's phone was, as I
    didn't have the sleuthing skills you had of finding out it out for sure.

    Truth be told, I was kind'a hopin' it would be a RED!!!!!! iPhone. :)

    But I did dig up more on why he first turned off his radios _before_
    powering the phone down, and it turned out to be what I thought it was.

    Apparently even (seemingly) powered down, phones can respond to pings from
    the outside world, including pings from the carrier's cell towers.

    This shows that we can learn about privacy from these criminals' mistakes.
    An example is when I go into any store nowadays, I go on airplane mode.

    I don't power down the phone as I sometimes snap photos of prices and/or products that I need to research later when I get home, but I turn all the radios off so that the in-store trackers don't log my every aisle.
