    Default Apple Granted Patent To Disable Cameras According To Location

    Glad I do not own an iphone...

    Apple was granted a patent last week that will enable it to wirelessly disable the camera on iphones in certain locations, sparking fears that such techniques could be used to prevent citizens from communicating with each other or taking video during protests or events such as political conventions and gatherings

    Wouldn't airplane mode defeat this?

    I can't imagine they would go through this trouble if you could simply override it but, who knows?

    Hmmm, yet another reason that I don't have apple goodies. Airplane mode on my phone kills all radios.

    I have location services turned off on mine almost entirely. If that's turned off before you physically move, it should prevent this, but then again, if you're connected to a cell tower at all, it could triangulate your position.... so more than likely you have to turn location services off, then go in to airplane mode, BEFORE you arrive at the "controlled location".... but knowing Apple, they've got some other way up their sleeves too.

    or of course you could just use a normal camera.
