Why the unnecessarily inflammatory headline? Yes, this patent could be used to disable protestors' phone cameras, it could also be used to disable phones in an exam room.
This seems like an intentionally misleading title.
I think the many people who work in "no cameras" facilities might love the option of a camera phone with an employer's profile that makes the phone safe to bring into the facility. This isn't much different from how my employer enforces the use of a passcode when connecting an iPhone to VPN.
