California native and I've lived all over the US. The jealously toward California is hilarious. I don't blame people, since this is one of the best states to live.
Also, please don't come here. California is awesome without you.
I'm amazed that there are already so many sarcastic responses to this news article less than two minutes after it was posted. There is absolutely no way on Earth that this was properly read in time to make those types of reactions.
Why, oh why, must everyone complain and whine about everything, especially without even fully understanding what he/she is complaining about?
People worried about phones being killed by government officials would do well to read the text of the bill.
"The bill would authorize an authorized user to affirmatively elect to disable or opt-out of the technological solution at any time."
If you don't want this protection from theft, you simply turn off the feature.
As it goes if the government wanted to stop you communicating they don't need this bill to do it.
When you can still hit a traffic jam at midnight, yeah, that's pretty jammed. (And, yes, I've hit those on at least a few occasions, and that's out of only a few more occasions that I've driven in/through LA, making the ratio rather high.)yeah sounds like SF.
in LA it's really not too bad.
i avoid rush hours during weekdays and usually it's not jammed.
Or perhaps more evidently of those who don't live in California.This thread has reinforced everything I ever thought of the people of California. Congratulations!
A lot of people here sure are against legislation that is meant to help consumers...
I don't see the big deal.
But if people actually read and comprehended what they read we couldn't have page after page of irrelevant threads about all kinds of things that aren't actually relevant to the article and the topic at hand.People worried about phones being killed by government officials would do well to read the text of the bill.

And what are those in this case specifically again?Well, of course. I can think of a thousand things that could be meant to help people that in fact does the opposite. The government and other powers that be can and do misuse seemingly good things to their own ends, and anyone who does not see this is blind indeed.
The road to hell is paved with good intentions, in other words.

"California has just put smartphone thieves on notice," said Senator Leno, D-San Francisco.
And what are those in this case specifically again?
Because that's exactly what that says and means.Oh wow. I can sleep well knowing that California has stopped crime by passing a regulation.
And they are part of this specific built in kill switch how again? Yeah...The TSA and the NSA are sufficient examples.
Earthquakes up, dude!
They need to have some justification for having one of the highest tax burdens in the US.

IF I was an auto executive I would remove all of my products from California.
I would encourage all other auto manufacturers to do the same.
Why do all US customers have to pay for the extra California emission tests and burdensome regulations?
Let them live like Castro's Cuba without new cars.
Toyota is moving it's HQ from California currently.
California wants clean energy - let them create their own energy --- they import 50% from out of state.
California is a disaster of the first degree - sure they have tech companies, but they rely upon the resources of other states.
The State House and Legislature is slipping towards Gomorrah faster than ever could have been imagined a decade ago.
I do not travel to California - my money is better spent elsewhere.
Why is the iTunes Store located in Nevada? So California cannot tax it excessively.
Once California fails from it's idiotic progressive/socialist/communist leaders, perhaps there will be a hope for it's future.
It will fail, dramatically, first.
Nothing wrong with any of it really. People just like to make random anonymous internet postings about nothing really.I though everybody will be happy with a law like this one, were I live thief are more interested on your phone than your wallet (maybe that's better, no?)
BTW, what's wrong with California? Comparing with other states, I considered it was ok. And you are free to live in whatever state you like, so we should respect other people's opinion.
