Your Turn

If ordered by a judge, would you turn over the entire contents of your phone knowing whatever embarrassing things in it will be publicly released or drop your case?

  1. When CNN fired me, I could not afford to pay my electric bill.

    It was the darkest period of my life.

  2. I am an old wise woman. There is nothing on my phone that I would be worried about. People that store nudes, and racy videos on their phones are not too bright.

    1. I also too boring to come up with a crime and text all my plans about it with my co-conspirators, including the paraphenalia to buy and our test run through it.

    They can have my phone any time without a court order. Zip, nada, nothing on my phone to cause a problem.

  4. I don't keep anything on my phone.

  5. As long as they don't delete all my contacts, concert photos and footage, they could have at it. With my previous phone, I might have had a problem handing over, lol.

  7. Nothing bad on my phone, maybe a couple silly text messages that may be slightly embarrassing, but that's it.

  8. I have an extremely curated, very small number of nudes on my phone which are not super easy to find.

    I'd be WAY more concerned about some of my unflattering "before" pics (seasonal weight loss) getting out, that would be truly humiliating.

  9. Almost threw my back out taking one shot 36 times.

  10. I'm too smart to own a smartphone, and my dumb phone shows nothing but very rare outgoing calls and an insane amount of incoming spam calls, which is only minorly embarrassing.

  11. Whenever people wonder about racy pics on their phones, I always remember that one scene from AP Bio where the teacher is telling the other teachers that when a guy asks for a pic of her backside or bosom, she takes a picture of the crook of her arm bent so it looks like some kind of cleavage.

  12. No problem. Can't be blackmailed.

  13. Hooray! It's a Candy day!😁

  14. Yes, and the Judge would be bored to death.

    ReplyDelete
  15. Oh, and my phone is rarely used, nothing fun or embarrassing

    ReplyDelete
  16. I would, no problem. Nothing embarrassing on my phone.

  17. Plus 1, MountainMama!

    As an Old White Man, I don't have anything on my phone worth looking at.

    I even delete pictures as soon as I post them.

    Definitely NOT of the Selfie generation!

  18. Well, which phone? ;)

    Just kidding, I've got nada on my phone, truly don't believe smartphones are secure. Anything you enter on your phone could wind up in a database somewhere.

  19. My search history for bitchy cats, The X Files, Twilight, Kristen Stewart and Robert Pattinson would be embarrassing.

    ReplyDelete
  20. Like everyone else, the only embarrassment would be the judge falling asleep while looking at the 6 million pictures of my dog.

    ReplyDelete
  21. Screenshots of stuff to share with friends and I never deleted
    Pictures of food and sunsets
    pdfs of fanfic

    Yeah. They can have it.

    ReplyDelete
  22. I would like to say neither, just for GP, but it would cost too much to fight it. They can have it. There is nothing embarrassing or incriminating on it. I’m too old for that shit.

    ReplyDelete
  23. Yep. Nothing to worry about here either. Texts are stuff I’d talk about in public. Photos? Hope the judge and jury enjoy lots of dog pictures and close ups of whatever mundane thing my wife and I are texting photos back and forth of. (Most recently the loose glitter section at a Michaels).

    ReplyDelete
  24. Damn Hunter, what takes 36 shots? 😅

    ReplyDelete
  25. The only embarrassing thing on my phone is my history of how often I come to CDAN!

    ReplyDelete
  26. lol @ loose glitter at Michaels

    ReplyDelete
  27. learned my lesson nuthin in my phone to be embarrassed about

    ReplyDelete
  28. @notagoodscreenname I will not be shamed over my glitter habit! 🤓

    ReplyDelete
  29. Sure, look at my phone. You'll be bored.

    ReplyDelete
  30. I would hope they find my meme collection entertaining

    ReplyDelete
  31. I would let the court have it but know I'd probably be labeled a crazy cat lady for all my photos of Kong the cat.

    ReplyDelete
  32. I'd accidentally drop it in the river

    ReplyDelete
  33. Yeah. I’m boring. Nothing saucy. Unfortunately.

    ReplyDelete
  34. There is absolutely nothing weird or embarrassing on my phone.

    ReplyDelete
  35. Don't know what they would be looking for in my bread and butter life but sure....nothing there but a couple of speed dials and Optometrist/dentist appointment SMS reminders. I only ever use it to take calls or make them.

    ReplyDelete
  36. Nothing, except some sort of bitchy text messages about someone a little too old to be trashy.

    ReplyDelete
  37. My phone doesn't take pictures. But I still wouldn't give it to them out of general principle.

    ReplyDelete
  38. Yep. Flip phones are amazing!

    ReplyDelete
  39. No. I would never turn over my phone, on principle.

    ReplyDelete
  40. Sure. Take the phone. Want the charger, too?

    The only incriminating evidence they're going to find is my sad selection of fast/sorta slow food joints in the Contacts. Well, that and the rather large collection of sunset photos. Or the cache from the YouTube app and my sudden obsession with The Crazy Lamp Lady.
