[QUOTE="blake711, post: 3267929, member: 32".. The government has no right to listen to you. ...[/QUOTE]

Like it or not, SCOTUS has ruled several times that a person in public has no expectation of privacy. Not in conversations, or even of your image.
Couple that with phone companies being regarded as Public Utilities, and subject to oversight by governmental entities ( ...can you say National Socialism?), and you fall squarely in to .Gov listening and watching.

As an aside, you cannot tell me the millions of Chinese made high end security cameras that secure our military bases, ships, top secret installations, missile silos, etc. do not have a back door built in to them. All they would have to do is know the MAC address of each camera and connect to it.
Umm, no. The MAC address doesn't help you unless you're on the local network or if the camera is connecting to a crappy cloud service. I can guarantee you that those cameras aren't being allowed to talk to anything outside the military's control, and they aren't letting just anyone on those physical networks, so, yeah, I can tell you that if there are any back doors, they are of no use.

Lot of conspiracy here...justified or not, we kinda let it happen.

Ever find a rattler, black widow, brown recluse, or scorpion someplace you really didn't want it to be in your home or yard? You let that happen too but it doesn't mean you were a willing participant in it now does it.

Interesting analogy... Who voted in the people who allowed this? Are you a voter?
The people of many generations (mine and before me, and of course this new generation of hippies) are becoming lax and comfortable thinking the government is here to serve and protect. When the Boston bombers acted, the ,law shut down Boston. No one allowed outside their house! F them! I am free to walk wherever the F I please. They went door to door searching and people gladly let them in...Fing disgusting how people allow suck s hit.
WE allowed this, not me or you specifically but we as a general population.
"They" let those snakes and scorpions inside dude.

I've been stung by several scorpions in the middle of the night. Not those big black Steinbeck scorpions, but the little brown ones we have here in Oklahoma. This other time I got stung by a scorpion that crawled inside my shirt. I don't know how any of them son of a bitches got in but I expect it was just nature let them in.
That's about all I have to say about them scorpions.
