www.appolicious.com/tech/articles/2066-top-android-phones-shouldn-t-be-wary-of-new-iphone-4I was reading the article on the new telephones that are competing with each other, The Iphone-4 and the Android series. Lots of neat features One of them will stamp the time date and location of any photo or video on the photo or video. That is what got me thinking. Suppose you did something that caused this record on your phone to become evidence that was going to be used against you. There's an air tight case because your location and time there are identified clearly. My question is does the constitutional protection against being forced to incriminate yourself allow you to refuse to identify the phone as your own? The phone can be introduced as evidence, I doubt it is necessary to have an admission of owning the phone to gain a conviction. The veracity of the evidence is able to be shown in other ways. I suppose if you do admit ownership there is alway a 'lost phone' defense. This is just a theoretical query on my part. Follow-up question. What do you feel about these new technologies? Do you have any qualms about the negative potential of these technologies in the area of privacy? .
