The US legal system (unlike some other countries) is built on the presumption of innocence. Civil forfeiture completely contravenes that principle and is therefore essentially extortion and corruption.

In theory yes, but in practice, I had to plead guilty to get out of jail after spending 6 months in jail, otherwise I would have had to spend another 6 months in jail just waiting for my trial.

So you are presumed innocent but they don't mind keeping you in jail anyways.

LibGen is the most generic name ever, had to look it up. Turns out that LibGen is a collection of pirated books.

Maybe this is a dumb question but why can’t you just record video with two iPhones evenly spaced with some kind of jig and synchronized the video output to get something usable for a 3D video?

Apparently you only need one iPhone : https://support.apple.com/guide/iphone/spatial-photos-record...

But of course the quality is probably a lot lower than with this camera
