But soon after Mr Xi secured a third term, Apple released a new version of the feature in China, limiting its scope. Now Chinese users of iPhones and other Apple devices are restricted to a 10-minute window when receiving files from people who are not listed as a contact. After 10 minutes, users can only receive files from contacts.
Apple did not explain why the update was first introduced in China, but over the years, the tech giant has been criticised for appeasing Beijing.
Nop with justice, as in a fair trial, conviction and setence. Ofc if we are talking about a terrorist attack then the apprehension of the suspect goes down below on the priority list, after hostage rescue and order implemented, so if killing the suspect presents a better option, that's the one that should be taken!
Still amazed we are in 2015 barely any linked systems between countries for background checks and tracking invidual history. If it was to me, I would just impose it as mandatory if you want to enter any country by mass transit options: airpots, busse, trains and on side (the city you move or visit) if it's by car.
Instead of having gouvernement tracking us online, filtering everything, but barely knowing if we have a legal background of crimes...

So you said backgroundchecks and individual history of travelling individuals should be conducted and that it should be mandatory and then you follow up by saying the government shouldn't be tracking us online (because they might see your porn history or something?)
Who's going to do the mandatory tracking of each individual? Not the government, they aren't allowed to infringe on your freedom of private interwebpronbrowsing, so I can't imagine you would trust them with tracking your travel routes.
Then we get to the point that we have to ask who would even be able to collect and analyse said data (suprise, its a huge unworkable amount of data).
So basicly, you want some body of authority to collect and check each and every individuals move, motive and deeds, but it can't be the government, obviously it also can't be a private institution, for private reasons and the simply reason that nobody can keep track of such vasts amount of data...
So that leaves us with you basicly wanting GOD to keep us from evildoing?
You stated that you don't want the (American) government to check and control your browsing on the internet, but you are ok with them planting a chip in you so they can track your every move day and night?
1. Such chips don't exist and are unfeasible, unhumane and untoughtfull to implement.
2. Your idea contains logical loopholes that bend the fabric of reality, is going to divide by zero and NewYork will be attacked by dragons.
Here is a danish article about the flowers. It's called "Flowers for a murderer" in english, put it in translate or something. There you will see everything I have written in my last posts.

You should know that it's a muslim's religious duty to, no matter if he's a criminal or a saint, attend the funeral of any muslim. Many people came and mourned him not to honor his actions, but to grieve that one of God's children, however misguided, had died.
And for your second part. You can condemn someone's actions without condemning them. Ted Bundy's actions were horrible and the lives he ruined, both his victims and the people that had them dear, were a tragedy. He wasn't, however, his actions. Inside him, at some point in his life, something happened that he lost the innocence that all human beings wish for. Be it mental illness or whatever it was. Something ruined his mind, and as a result, he ruined lives. I'm not excusing his actions. His actions warranted the retribution that he got. But to preach peace and understanding means to be peaceful and understanding to all people, not just the ones you like. A life lost is a life lost, and when you die, your actions die with you. There's only death left. And death, to a peaceful person who craves peace, is always a tragedy.
Seeing how there's around 1,5 billion Muslims, damn they must be constantly busy attending all kind of funerals. How do they manage to find the time and how come only about 500-1000 attended his funerals. Didn't the others break their religious obligation? And why don't that many attend a funeral of someone who hasn't gotten as prominent through acts of terror? Questions over questions!
Just to begin with, we're not talking about peaceful people here. Neither the guy who commited these murders nor Ted Bundy were. Also I'm not preaching peace and understanding, I really wish we could get along but I'm a realist and thus if you don't accept my opinions, world view and freedom and my right to have them I don't see how I should extend that courtesy towards you when it's not mutual.But to preach peace and understanding means to be peaceful and understanding to all people, not just the ones you like. A life lost is a life lost, and when you die, your actions die with you. There's only death left. And death, to a peaceful person who craves peace, is always a tragedy.
And no, the actions of a person don't die with them. As the ripples they caused remain. The victims and their families still suffer, the people they've murdered don't come back to live and their deeds aren't undone. What they've done keeps echoing for a long time to come. So dying doesn't suddenly absolve you of the atrocities and crimes you've inflicted upon others.
