| Bliss Judging by the 'expertise' residing at 'dsl.reports' you must no-doubt recognize that we live in an environment where info is money & power. In the late 90's I convinced my 'agency' to subscribe with 'Choicepoint' . Amazing how much info was available pre-cellphone dominance. Gleaned from sweepstakes entries and local govt' files, it was useful and a bit unnerving. It's grown, out of control, to be 'just part of life'.
Cellphones have become a cash cow (as opposed to being solely useful) based upon the vanity/gimmick factor of the "y" gen. They have also become a fall-back (easy) tool for LE or all sorts.
After military folks assigned to the NSA (to monitor 'Al qaeda' sat-phones) disclosed that they'd been listening int to, and recording, ALL sat-phone conversations worldwide, and that the recordings were ALL maintained, there is no doubt that it is open season on all data. |
