>call data isn't stored on the phone itself>even the most brilliant criminal mastermind in the show breaks the phone as if that's a shield against the government>they're just breaking the flip hinge and not the actual phone, preserving whatever data the phone did store
>>223579974Everyone he was selling to was retarded, anon
>>223580107He also did it himself through the show though.
>>223580107We're supposed to believe that Gus Fring is retarded?
>>223580363He went against his better judgment and trusted Walter.
>>223579974>breaks the phoneDavid Fincher made a whole film about how much this pisses him off. He went near maximum reee about it
>>223580490fincher has been washed and embarrassing since the 00s
>>223579974This was a thing in movies and shows back in the day, and it was in Breaking Bad long before BCS. It makes perfect sense though from a filmmaking perspective, it's an easy visceral way to show a phone being "destroyed" symbolizing that the person is ditching it to avoid being tracked. It doesn't matter if it doesn't make sense irl, it's symbolic.
>>223580510well, I'm sure he likes your thread
>>223579974You know what? You’re right. These shows aren’t very realistic after all!
>>223579974>call data isn't stored on the phone itself yeah sure, and pee isn't stored in the balls
Didn't they do it in The Wire too?
>>223579974A random broken phone isnt going to be looked into though and its not attached to you, unless you made a series of bad choices ie paying with debit/credit at a store they can trace it back to. Also its no longer tracking you.
>>223579974I clapped when Slippin' Jimmy invented the burner phoneBravo Vince!
>>223579974they also had a machine gun spraying an arc actuated by a rotating cylinder spray a uniform distribution of bullets over the interval instead of hits being concentrated at the ends where the translational velocity of the aim point goes to zero. this is like second semester engineer school shit
>>223582151I am retarded, but I think I get the gist.After drawing some sketches and diagrams with crayons, I think I got it.Thanks engineer anon.
>>223581884Fingerprints, some DNA left behind. metadata on the phone such as who you called, your text messages and such. Maybe even pictures that were not uploaded to the cloud or servers.
With burner phones, you are supposed to do the following >>Buy the phone and the phone card with cash. NEVER with a credit or debit>>Active phone with an assumed name>>Never never never do anything personal with the phone except calls and texts to your fellow crooks>>When not in use, keep the sim card outside the phone to prevent tracking >>Never use it near your home or where you can be seen and wear gloves while handling it>>When you destroy it, you remove the SIM before you break the phone then throw the broken phone away like in a river or sewer or off a cliff that is out of the way.>>Destroy the sim card by burning it with a flame of some kind
>>223582166Okay, started taking random shit to forensics and see what happens
