Incompetence in the justice system is a good reason to keep all trackers on and privacy features off.

I personally keep 24x7 audio recordings of my life to try to get ahead of false accusations.

He has been set free, but his entire life has been destroyed by this "subtle" mistake. Once you have spent time, no employer will touch you with a barge pole. (innocence not withstanding) Do hope he can claim compensation...

Earlier quoted context omitted.

This is an error by US (Wisconsin) police misidentifying a man in (Halifax, Nova Scotia) Canada. Why do you want to hear from a UK lawyer? It sounds like the appeal hasn't actually happened/completed yet anyway, that they're trying to raise public interest/outrage to help the case.

The appeal has been completed and he's been acquitted. Note the past tense in how the CBC wrote this part: "The Wisconsin police identified Mr. Klayme as the offender using the incorrect username. His conviction rested on the internet username being attributed to him,” the appeal panel wrote.
