Whether or not this is what somebody thinks it may be, I'm in the group that doesn't like the idea of someone other than me controlling my 'Phone for any reason.
You want to put a Faraday cage in the walls? Fine as long as you tell me before I go inside. But stay out of my 'Phone.
You want to put a phase-time reality distortion field around your works of art so my 'Phone doesn't record your performance but let's me video somebody snatching a neckless off of a guest? Fine. You don't even have to tell me.
External stuff is one thing. Disabling my 'Phone is totally different.
Now, maybe in a day or more, we'll find out exactly what the issue is.
As for rogue cops, there are still plenty of other ways to make them famous. Plain old digital cameras, still and motion.
Not to mention phones other than the iPhone. And rogue cops are probably the least of anybody's problem, if not paranoia.
