"Don't want no Samsung": London's phone thieves get picky (londoncentric.media) 8 points by speckx 7mo ago ↗ HN
[–] The_suffocated 7mo ago ↗ Do people these days call robbers ‘thieves’? When I read the title, I thought the article was about pickpockets.
[–] novafurry 7mo ago ↗ As the saying goes, beggars can't be choosers....I feel like people at some point are going to pick up on this, and just leave their iPhones at home and bring a cheap samsung just for the basic stuff(although cheap samsungs have their own issues, see AppCloud (https://www.androidauthority.com/samsung-appcloud-spyware-co...))
