This is a project account for @MAVscotland. We’ve decided that rather than have an account for each of our projects we are just going to put all of our activity in one place so you can find us @MAVscotland

Take a look at this concerning video. We see tech being used against people but it can be a friend for police too when it comes to evidence gathering.
Please consider the tips to minimise the chance of this being used against you.
