    Russian Telegram videos now show how ordinary citizens are stopped and having their phones searched.

    During these searches, the police writes down their phones' unique International Mobile Equipment Identity number to log their real identity and this number in a database. So every time a citizen turns on his phone, the dictatorship then knows which citizen it is, where he is, what he is doing online, and who he is talking to.

    This is not a country. This is the largest prison on earth.

    @randahl
    We don't need to do this, because unless you are using a prepaid SIM - and never had a subscription SIM in the same phone, Danish and European authorities already have that information.

    Did you notice how getting a prepaid SIM became a lot harder a few years ago? I used to have a prepaid SIM that I paid 99,- for per year, and now I'm paying 79,- per month for pretty much the same use, simply because prepaid became too cumbersome.

    Russia presumably have a lot more people using prepaid SIMs, so they can't get the information via the phone company.

              @randahl I understand why they do it. But they're on the losing end anyway.

              They can either disable the mobile network or otherwise the Ukraine will find a way to control their drones.

              The corruption in Russia becomes a huge advantage for it's opponents. If you have the money, there will always be a way.

              From what I hear, they tend towards rolling back mobile internet. So that country will become even more of a hellhole.

                  @random_sapiens The US already has all that information along with a decades old mass surveillance programme. They'd only do this for the theatrics.

                      @randahl wouldn't they already be able to access this info?Assuming people mostly get phones on a contract and not buying phones with cash.

                            i have 100s of comments hating on the govt of russia, putin, the kremlin

                            but i'm careful not to demonize regular russians, because yes, while many of them are loser assholes who support the stupid ethnofascist war on ukraine, many are not

                            and thus, not as some high minded moral principle, but simply as a matter of good tactics and strategy, we don't demonize all russians, simply because if putin is to be overthrown, it will be regular russians doing it

                              Seems incongruous to decry police-state behavior in a police-state with your face visible. Video looks real but, I wonder.

                              I can definitely see something like this coming to the USA.

                                @leeloo @randahl 79 Eur per month seems insanely expensive.

                                Edit: My bad, i'm guessing it's DKK not Eur

                                    @randahl Are you sure the IMEI can tell them what the phone is doing on the internet? I've never heard that before, and I just looked it up and it doesn't seem to be true. All it can tell them is the phone's location.

                                      Russian Telegram videos now show how ordinary citizens are stopped and having their phones searched.

                                      During these searches, the police writes down their phones' unique International Mobile Equipment Identity number to log their real identity and this number in a database. So every time a citizen turns on his phone, the dictatorship then knows which citizen it is, where he is, what he is doing online, and who he is talking to.

                                      This is not a country. This is the largest prison on earth.

                                      It's only a different way than in other countries. It happens everywhere.
                                      So nothing new or surprising.

                                        @randahl the f**k is that? I meant the police or whatever doing that, not the number.

                                        In 🇺🇸 the IT companies inform the government, for a fee.

                                        The whole world is 1984. Idk which country/government is absolutely free for being monitored. 🇩🇪? 🇫🇷?

                                          @randahl Серьёзно? Наверное я живу в параллельной вселенной, где ничего подобного не происходит. Но зато в моей вселенной в мирных русских городах гибнут мирные люди от оружия, которое поставляет НАТО террористам. И эта кровь вопиет к небу.
