Most portable electronics today use some variation of lithium ion batteries, which when it becomes unstable can combust/explode if mishandled. However, devices generally have thermal management software and hardware, as well as multitude of other safety mechanisms like power management systems to handle charge regulation. Unless you intentionally puncture your batteries, they’re not likely to cause any problems on their own.
I guess the question I am asking is how do I know someone hasn’t placed a bomb inside as is now happening with other devices in the world? (See current news)
You don't. Try not to piss off any national governments, especially unhinged ones (Russia, China, US, Israel, etc.)
Israel gets away with killing Americans now too... I don't think others can do that without serious FO
I mean Saudi Arabia showed that American citizens lives only matter when they align with national interests years and years ago
Damn... That's even a better example tbh.
But yeah... Big dick daddy only gonna daddy protector shit if you are on the right side of the propaganda.
Yeah the best example is probably the Japanese internment camps during WW2. You don't have 'rights', you have privileges. Rights can't be taken away.
Americans but not like that 🤡
