Comment on In North Korea, your phone secretly takes screenshots every 5 minutes for government surveillance
Valmond@lemmy.world 3 days agoWell are we putting people in prison with the help of them? A secret screenshot folder nobody can exploit isn’t very useful …
Not saying it can’t be done (you are of course right there), we hand it over freely often, but that the implications are not death to your family.

You dont have to bring them to court with it for it to be useful. It could be used to target individuals theb they use more conventional methods to arrest then.
I would guess they arent currently doing it enmasse because that doesnt sound useful either. I would say, solely on a vibes based level its been done by US intelligence. Its really not so different then a wiretap.
