To be honest it doesn't really matter if it's modified or an entirely different product offering. It seems it is trying to muddy the waters with the name WP.

Did they change anything? If so, it's modification.

Just pop a "😎" in the chat. No further elaboration required.

I can't go and modify something and violate their trademarks in the process lol.

Sorry, by "outside of the law" I meant apart from legally compelling someone. The word choice made it sound like I meant illegal methods. I meant volunteering information. I don't think people should ever do it. I've edited that in for clarity.

It's my personal opinion that the police should not even be allowed to request voluntary searches, but that's a different topic and one I recognize as more extremist. It's just too easy for requests to sound like demands in a society with manners. Phrases like "Would you please do X?" are often used for both optional things and required things because "Do X" sounds rude to people.

Then people giving this sort of practical advice should explicitly say that lest someone get arrested for failure to present a license or whatever.

Correct. I use the AdGuard DNS servers on my router and get less ads on things occasionally but it YouTube. It's been most noticable on Duolingo because now it always plays the Duolingo premium version ad. I'm guessing that it plays that when it fails to fetch a normal ad.

I cannot know with 100% certainty that someone hasn't planted false evidence on my phone, so I absolutely have reason turn my phone off before surrendering it (if I'm forced to surrender it).

If cops are certain I've committed a crime, why do they need to rely on methods outside the law (edit: I mean outside of legally compelling me via a warrant or similar) to get me? No, I'm never going to consent to any sort of search without a warrant. If you think I have something to hide, why are you afraid to get a warrant?

I hate advice like this because you just say empty terms like "obey lawful commands" after saying to not do anything. The question is how do we do this practically. Cops can lie. They can just say whatever is a lawful command. This is why this sort of advice needs to be more specific.

A good example, presenting your driver's license for traffic stops. That's usually a law, is it not? But you say to not consent to searches or seizures. The whole reason people ask for specific practical advice is because they don't wanna get fucked over by the cops but also don't wanna get fucked over for unintentionally pulling sovereign citizen like bullshit.
