what you think about the gov sponsering some business to give free cell phones, wonder how much thats going to cost me a month, pricks

Sure but inflation is paying the bill.

You cant provide guns and butter for your people.

The state can provide anything as long as they have a central bank.

Anyone holding dollars loses cause of stuff like this.

Can you cite your source for this information. Particularly regarding the fact that T-Mobile and Sprint are not complicit in breaking the law? To my knowledge Quest was the only company who dissented.

can they tap for the hell of it or does it have to be a investigation?

**sooners04** · 09-10-2008, 02:56 PM

Title 3 is the Federal wire tap law. It takes LOTS of probable cause/evidence for any law enforcement agency to get a wire tap on a phone.

They have to believe that at least one party to the call is not in the United States.

This is circumvented by the CIA and NSA by using remote locations in the UK and other countries to listen in on domestic telephone calls.

Probably, but I was just talking about local law enforcement getting permission to tap phone lines of criminals.

godfather.

I can't remember the cell phone company. But they're a sister company of sprint. But it is true. It was a few months ago when I found all this out.

It is quite for local yocals to get wire taps this is true. HOWEVER, any Federal agency can get them easily without even having to bring it before a judge. It works like this, we'll use the FBI as a for instance. The FBI can immediately start wiretaps on any 'person of interest' if they even slightly suspect them in any way. Once that wiretap is started, they have to keep track of it, and then within X amount of days bring it before a judge in SECRET COURT to get approval for it. What we have found through many FOIA requests is that often times the FBI was starting these taps, drafting the memo's for the judge, and then just never bringing them up before the judge. They got a little slap on the wrist for this, but the MSM never brought it up in any significant fashion and one can only imagine the abuses going on if that's the kind of info we can dig up through FOIAs.

I see!! It works the otherway for local law enforcement. They have to have loads of probable cause/evidence to even apply for a wire tap. Then they can tap it with permission for 30 days, and get it extended if necessary.
