    Conservatives have already said that they want to inspect children’s genitals, so it’s only a matter of time until they start saying that they want to regularly inspect women’s genitals as well to “protect unborn children” (read: control women and fulfill their sick fetish)

    What we need is a phone mode that disconnects from the cell network periodically when not in use, then bounces back up to check for notifications. Obviously this mode wouldn’t be good for people who need to be available by phone, but who calls nowadays? ;)

            Regardless, it is illegal in most (all?) states to obscure your plate in any way, and they can ticket you if they feel like it. It’s a “reason” to pull you over… sounds like you just got pulled over by someone who wasn’t an asshole.

            I don’t know how the laws work regarding this outside the states though.

    Well it’s time for everyone to do their civic duty and drive by an abortion clinic once or twice a month and sit in the parking lot for 5 or 10mins to fuck up their data.
