Hello all, I did not know that s.254 had this beauty hidden under the carpet.
...Also buried deep within S. 254 is language that for the first
time allows the police to intercept the content of electronic
communications -- the contents of pager messages -- without
a warrant. Those messages can reveal information about a
person's travel schedule, private life and current location. The
bill's "cloned pager" language is the latest expansion of
wiretap authority to be buried in a large, complex bill where
the public, which is generally skeptical about wiretapping, is
not likely to notice. "Public safety" seems to demand that the
public be protected from any opportunity to debate whether
the federal government needs more power to peek in on the
public without a search warrant.
Don't hear the media telling sheeples this little tid bit. I would think that e-mail is also at risk if this should sneek through. I have been using
ziplip.com/ for sensitive e-mails. It's free and easy. (I have no affiliation with ziplip.com)
