JetBlue Flight Evacuated After Picture of a Suicide Vest Sent to Every iPhone On Board
By Matt Fischer, News Breaking Live, July 14, 2019
Story continues below advertisementA Jet Blue plane about to take off from Newark Airport Saturday had to be evacuated after someone, possibly a passenger on the flight, sent a photo of a suicide vest to everyone’s Apple device, sources said.
The flight bound to Tampa left the gate and was on the runway at 7:20 a.m. when someone “air dropped” the photo into everyone on the plane’s iPhone, including two flight attendants, sources said.
The flight attendants alerted the pilot, who immediately declared an emergency. The flight was stopped and evacuated. All the luggage and cargo was removed onto the tarmac so it could be inspected, sources said.
After nothing was found, passengers were allowed back onto the flight, which left the airport about noon. Authorities are trying to track down the person responsible for the airdrop, an iPhone function where someone can send a picture to every Apple device within 30 feet.

I never heard of ‘airdrop’ till now (I use Android). What a stupid function-allowing strangers to send you images without your permission.
Were there any Muslims on that flight? They’re the ones who should be questioned. I wouldn’t put it past prankster Libtards either.

That is a bizarre feature. I wonder if it requires bluetooth or WiFi be active?
Android is powered by a Goolag developed OS, I don’t know if I trust them.

Recall when Tucker had a guest, who had a man in the middle box? They turned off their android phone drover around DC, went into a children’s hospital and returned. Turning the phone back on it knew their entire course. I own a dumb phone though I do own an iPod Touch for mathematics apps and ebooks. I’m building a Faraday Cage for the Touch.

If you build your own portable Faraday Cage you should market it! You would definitely have a market for it. I guess probably the only way to guarantee your smart phone isn’t a spy phone is to remove the battery.

You are right and that is why I have dumb phone! 😉 Though I do own an iPod Touch so I’m stuck. Thanks for the thought. You just gave me a project for my 3D CAD application!

I don’t own a cell phone much less an iphone but i heard about an airdrop incident where some guy sent a dickpic and got caught. i would think you could not call anyone without having their number but the digital giants are evil organizations and one of their big wigs said you don’t have any privacy, but i do because i have a little because i don’t have an so called smart phone.

I do have a cell fone, but an older “dumb” phone. I refuse to own anything Apple, even from the very early Apple II computers, because of their political and civil abuses. This “feature” is insane – and should be traceable on the network histories to capture whomever is responsible.

Cellular networks are transitioning to VoLTE, dumb cell phones might not work much longer. I’ve read the encryption on apple’s iphones is tough to beat and apple hasn’t been cooperated w/US government law enforcement entities to unlock them on at least one occasion.

When my old cell fone will not work, I might go back to a landline –

It seems that someone had access to check in info suggesting an inside job.

I was researching links between Epstein and JetBlue a day ago (strange that every time I research something “privately” it will make head line news). JetBlue was partially funded by Soros. JetBlue is the first airliner to go fully digital (you can delete records to destroy evidence), Epstein’s Island is 600 miles from Haiti and serviced by JetBlue. 1000’s of children mysteriously went missing in Haiti. Epstein’s temple has jet blue stripes painted on it.

I’d be the only guy on the plane sitting down. I don’t own a Smart(ass) phone.

Smart man, but the question is now whether any cell phone technology can be trusted, even that used in dumb phones. There aren’t many pay phones any more either. I once forgot my f*%^#g cell phone years ago, my car broke down and I had to walk three city blocks before I found a pay phone.

If you own an iPhone or another Apple product running IOS 8 or newer, go to “Settings, General, Airdrop”, and check “Contacts Only, or “Receiving Off”. This would prevent the sending of messages like the one described here. “Everyone” seems to be the default setting. Law enforcement can easily find the person who sent it, by checking any of the phones that received it. Of course, the perpetrator has probably destroyed the phone now. False flag operation to cause disruption in our air travel system.

Would it be sufficient for the perp to just remove the SIM card (i.e. to prevent anyone from tracking him)? Doesn’t the removal of the SIM card disable the phone’s ability to connect to a cellular network?
