And it all comes down to a someone thinking that they are authorized to harass and harangue a citizen acting in a manner they think is inappropriate. What do they call them now? &#8220;Mall Cops?&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Anyway, I was wondering if anyone has developed a CompactFlash card that can transmit data to a nearby card\/flash disk &#8211; using bluetooth or something similar &#8211; rather than storing the data on the CF card itself. (My camera uses a CF card for memory.) Thus if someone takes my camera (police or thief) the pictures I have been taking will be stored safely somewhere else. <\/p>\n<p>I suppose if a travelling companion had a receiver card as well, we could have redundant backup storage.&nbsp; Probably want to protect the transmission so I don&#8217;t recieve someone else&#8217;s photos in addition to mine or vice versa. <\/p>\n<p>A quick google of &#8216;Compact Flash bluetooth&#8217; indicates that there is something out there. Whether it does what I want needs to be seen. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>via Boing-Boing The very idea that the police may come up to me and take away my camera, or otherwise impede my taking photos in a public place, fills me with concern and a sense of dread.
