  • I won’t speak to how the UK does things, but in the US this would make for an easier criminal charge.

    It can be difficult to prove that someone stole (or is about to steal) a car, or broke in to steal the contents. This is especially true if they weren’t apprehended in or with the vehicle itself. But if they are arrested on suspicion, and one of these devices is found on them, they can very easily be prosecuted for possession of criminal tools. It’s similar to how we normies can’t legally own a lockpicking kit unless we’re locksmiths.











  • That really only shows assets, not income. While that’s very important information for senators (who coincidentally push bills that will benefit their portfolio), it doesn’t address income. $34 million doesn’t start from a Senate salary, no matter how well invested.

    Most additional income comes from things like book deals and speaking fees.
