Phone tapped?
    #17261116 - 11/21/12 09:16 PM (11 years, 5 months ago)

Okay. So myself and three friends have Verizon smart phones. In the last two weeks we have noticed when we text each other occasionally it will take 1-10 min to send the message and sometimes we receive duplicates of each others text messages. Does anybody know
If this is cause for concern?
Thank you very much.

Lmfao its your junk ass wireless carrier... but dont be a douche, use common sense and dont text about drugs. Think about how easy it would be if they just typed in bud, pot, mj, herb, grass and had a search engine linked to the conversations sent through texts lol.

Every one is being watched.
It is a computerized program that alerts homeland security if you text, email or even speak the system alert words on the phone.
If you make it a habit to text or say things like" that shit is the bomb"
You have already had a closer look taken at you.
Talk of anything illegal is just stupid on the phone.
Wouldn't worry to much though, they only fry the big fish.
They say the system is for catching terrorists.

I call bullshit.

I can't even get records of text messages that are more than 2 days old...

Unless you've got more than rank speculation, I don't believe it.

Texting doesn't go through the internet.  Texts aren't logged.

you can't retrieve them but the feds can bring back 20 year old shit.

The general theory among the non paranoid is that there isn't enough man power to watch everyone, right.

Well this is done easily by computer. Only tuning in on communications that contain key words.

Not cause for concern.  Phone taps just copy the data and do not add any delay.  There is nothing different about the circuit, so nothing for you to notice or detect.

That may have been true in the 1940's, but those days are long gone.

Did you just make this up, or do you have a source for this?

Wait, the patriot act doesn't say that!

Wiretapping laws.

What is your source for that?  More BS?

That depends on your carrier.  They can keep them as long as they want, but they aren't obligated to save them.

My son has an ipod with an anonmous #.

The cops showed up one day.

Apparently he was sexting his girl.

They traced his anonmous # right to my internet modem.

Figure that one out!

Had pages of the nasty shit kids say to each other.

I say no drugs on the phone.

Don't be making threats to people on the phone, you can get in trouble for that too.

Wiretaps are inadmissable but are used for gathering information.
