Let's be real here. the only thing he actually did illegal is delete data when requested (destruction of evidence) selling encrypted phones isn't illegal. Modifying phones to remove unwanted features isn't illegal. encrypting messages isn't illegal. He should have done an end to end encryption so that literally only messenger and recipient could read the messages and either or could delete it.

[@Spiritofhope5]

No, under RICO laws they had him death to rights for conspiracy by knowingly selling to criminals organizations a product designed specifically for their operations. Its called conspiracy to commit crimes and there is the addition al charges of aiding and abetting, providing material support and conspiracy to destroy evidence. These are each, at least one count per organization sold to in the sting. But in several these is more likely potentially hundreds if not thousands of counts for each charge, per organization. That's enough to put him away ffg or several consecutive sentences and lifetimes.

[@nachashiesu-sophia]

​@@Spiritofhope5 I think he meant ethically, because not everyone is simple-minded and submissive enough to believe that or act as if illegal = wrong.

[@Struth.McLoose]

If it was actually encrypted to the company also, it kind of falls under Schrodinger's evidence right? Knowingly selling to a cartel is one thing. Refusing to sell to individuals that contact you individually and provably separate, is discrimination no?

[@Spiritofhope5]

@@nachashiesu-sophia No, ilegal doesn't as always equal wrong. But in this case it did, he was there to meet with people whose businesses were known to him as criminal organizations and he represented to them that this product was designed specifically for their unique criminal needs. That is conspiracy and aiding and abetting. But also morally wrong.

[@loslingos1232]

[@LionHeartSamy]

Not gonna lie, there's two things I'm surprised by in this video: 1. That providing privacy services - something that itself would appear to be entirely legal - to people doing illegal stuff is apparently illegal? 2. That collecting information of Americans is illegal considering that's what exactly the NSA did lol

[@theTweak0284]

For 1) It's not the offering privacy services, it's the knowingly facilitating illegal activities. If the privacy service does not grant themselves access to the contents (like how Signal claims, not sure if they can be trusted but that's a separate issue) and forces the users to do all their work themselves they could have gotten away with it. In my opinion, the fact that you can contact the company to delete your chats remotely implies that the company has access to your device (or at least can send a kill signal), which provides reasonable belief to investigate the company and potentially arrest people involved. Whether the company had access and had a duty to inform Law Enforcement would have been determined by the courts, but an arrest could potentially be justified. Just because you're arrested and charged doesn't mean you're guilty in the US. It just means the alphabet boys think you've committed a crime and will attempt to prove it in court.

[@nnelg8139]

1) it's complicated, talk to a local lawyer 2) it's simple, there's nobody punishing them

[@operacarmen]

Actually according to an insider the feds leadership got mad after an Israeli was sold a phone .. and this is THE ONLY condition they gave to the operation leaders, no Israelis.

[@45545videos]

1. Knowingly providing services that aid/facilitate criminal activities is the crime. If you're the getaway driver, you can be charged. If you were just an Uber driver and had no idea your passenger had just robbed a bank or something, then you're fine. 2. It's only illegal once they get caught

[@attentionlabel]

Man this is legit one of the coolest stories and one of the best documentaries I have ever seen on KZbin... And i've seen a LOT.

[@emsouemsou]

Reminds me a little of the story of the Berlin tunnel, a wiretapping operation by joint US and British intelligence that was discovered by a Soviet spy, but allowed to proceed because the KGB wanted more penetration into the American-British spy network. The part about the feds allowing the criminals to market their phones on their own reminded me of that. Steve Vogel's book Betrayal in Berlin covers that one.

[@GamingEelektross]

For Vince, it was entrapment, but he was, in no way, clean or opposed to working with organized crime. It wasnt his intent but he was well aware of what his business became. With a good lawyer he could have walked away with less than a slap on the wrist by cooperating and/or making a legal case of it being entrapment. Instead he ran and tried to cross the border which sealed his fate.

For instance, the first ammendment says that congress shall make no law limiting certain rights, whereas other ammendments speak of the right of the people, very different scope of applicability there), generally it applies at least to everyone under US jurisdiction. For that very issue being clarified about the 4th amendment, see Zadvydas v. Davis (2001). Outside of US territory, the 4th amendment doesnt protect US-citicens, either, outside of fairly specific limited circumstances. For further notes on the applicability of the 4th amendment outside fo the US see Reid v. Covert (1957), United States v. Verdugo-Urquidez (1990)

What they did to Vince should be crime by itself. And all agents and organizers of that operation should be prosecuted and go to jail.

[@RisingRevengeance]

You know they are above the law, nothing is gonna happen to them.

[@Ultimatum878]

If you conceal or destroy evidence of a crime with full knowledge of the fact a crime was committed you can be arrested. Vince absolutely knew that was happening and agreed to be complicit. In the book, he told undercover agents that he could help them hide their crimes.

[@smokeybowls187]

​@@Ultimatum878 It's still entrapment. They had to create "evidence" of his willing & knowledgeable participation in the concealment of those crimes. They, the FBI agents, goaded him into selling phones to customers he assumed were criminals. They got him to commit a crime that he might not have otherwise "knowingly" or "willingly" done. I'm no lawyer, but based on the definition of entrapment they indeed entrapped him.

[@smokeybowls187]

Without the setup, the argument could've been made that he "didn't know" that his services were being used by criminals due to the intense focus placed on privacy. "They simply asked me to delete messages like any other user, legitimate or otherwise, could; messages which I could not read due to encryption."

[@ShandoGuardian]

@@smokeybowls187 Not an expert on entrapment but from what I'm reading online in the u.s. entrapment is a defense you can argue in court. The act of entrapment is not illegal itself. In this specific case it would absolutely not apply Vince took the initiative to set up his business completely on his own and was completely aware that he was deleting evidence of crimes. The entrapment defense only works if the jury decides that the defendant would not have committed the crime without influence from the police. The fact that both Vince and the first guy the feds were able to get a phone through deleted the messages suggest that this was standard practice for Vince's business that he founded. I agree that we should have privacy but I'm not going to lose any sleep over Vince. IMO he got off easy. In 2023 about 150,000 people died from overdoses of drugs in the u.s. alone. How many drug dealers weren't caught because of Vince? He was clearly someone smart and talented enough to make a living and support his family legitimately. He was catering to criminals entirely to satisfy his greed. Fuck him.

@@crazychicken8290 vague as “vag”, Las Vegas as “Las Vahgas” San Diego as “San Diahgo”. Either he has never heard anyone say those words before or it’s on purpose. It’s weird, he makes good content but it feels really tacky to resort to engagement bait like this.

[@grantm.5975]

The fact that people's private and intimate messages were being read is a fact I think you glossed over too fast. This is an insane amount of mass surveillance, and in the end it wasn't even worth it. Despite all these arrests, drugs are still being peddled in these regions every day. So citizens had their privacy stripped from them for...no reason? WTF

[@saulgallagher5668]

Wait, why would a joint task force of Canadians and Americans not have power to arrest him in Canada??

[@I-Love-You-Very-Much]

Crumb said something along the lines of "He didn't do anything illegal in Canada." So I think that's it.

[@BirdsOfGlass]

So he really didn't commit a crime but he didn't make the FEDS job less difficult so they found a reason? Imagine if they just asked him for limited access in special circumstances & he said yes. He'd be a massive multimillionaire & would have a massive bargaining chip in the future. Wild.

[@ExileXCross]

His business hinged on the fact that feds did not have access. Imagine how popular Snapchat would be if it's users found out Snaps weren't deleted forever instead save and archived on a server waiting for an authority or someone with enough to access due to special circumstances.

[@BirdsOfGlass]

@ExileXCross now imagine that IS what happens & it's just a well kept secret. Look at those encryption message apps. They were supposed to be completely secure but it turns out the feds could access them.
