Australian man pleads guilty to downloading Christchurch video (abc.net.au) 6 points by ceilingcorner 4y ago ↗ HN
[–] ceilingcorner 4y ago ↗ I am curious if HN has input on this:The court heard the father-of-one downloaded the video two weeks after the massacre in March 2019, but had last viewed the video in April this year, prompting police to search his property.How would they know if/when the video was watched? [–] Rzor 4y ago ↗ Maybe some Recently Watched feature of his OS or Media Player. [–] h2odragon 4y ago ↗ "access time" file metadata?
[–] [dead] foolzcrow 4y ago ↗ Democracy dies in the dark. Why on earth would any news worthy video be illegal?
