[QUOTE="curiousbrain, post: 809519, member: 31608"] Disclaimer: Believe anything I say at your own risk. This would require an enormous amount of cooperation by the cell phone company(ies), including those who actually own/lease the wireless networks around the country (Verizon, etc) - what is the benefit? Additionally, as mentioned by a previous poster, it is in violation of federal law and unless you have some highly sensitive information, it is probably not worth the risk and you are being paranoid. As to the listening device on your phone, if you mean your cell phone I would point out that is not actually required, because if they had the cooperation of the wireless carrier as you previously hinted at, they could just process your conversations at various "nodes" throughout the network. Again, highly unlikely. If you mean your land line, they wouldn't need to put a listening device on that either because they could tap your phone at any local switch computer and have access to all your phone records, conversations, etc. Although, unless they had a warrant, or were part of the warrantless wiretapping program, this would again be highly illegal and I'm pretty sure your being overly paranoid. Then again, maybe I work for "them" and am just trying to allay your fears so-as-not-to arouse your suspicion. [/QUOTE]
