DOJ and Cell phone trolling
« on: November 14, 2014, 11:45:58 AM »
Anyone know more about this?
I don't have WSJ subscription.

DOJ using small planes equipped with fake cellphone towers to hunt criminals
The U.S. Department of Justice is using Cessna aircraft equipped with fake cellphone towers known as "dirtboxes" to hunt criminal suspects. The plane can grab data from thousands of cellphones in a single flight, most of that information from non-suspects, according to people with knowledge of the program.  The Wall Street Journal (tiered subscription model) (11/13)

Once something is sent through the air it is fair game (unfortunately) and one should take that into consideration or blame themselves. Trust no one then it's only you that screws up.

I'm wondering how far you would take that broad statement?
Does this apply to ordinary speech, too?  And, should that include the context of the words spoken?  Did you know that digital splicing can reform the words you say into any order or combination?

And, should we take precautions when expressing ideas and thoughts, where ever they are spoken?  ...Such as in the shower or bedroom?

Are you ok with random surveillance monitors that amplify window vibrations?  These vibrations are also sent through the air.

Are you ok with the government having a key that will decode any public encryption scheme?

How do you feel about warrantless searches, and wiretapping?

I hate the busy-body intrusionist the Government has become, but that being said I'm flattered that they are watching mundane posts about oil valves or SAE values. It must get boring to monitor us.

No, I don't.

But, if I was still working for wage or salary, I expect it would be unavoidable, as many employers seem convinced that it is necessary to be qualified for employment.

The funny side to all this NSA snooping is that people are still allowed to post evil shyte online and carry out mass shootings without the Gov'mnt lifting a finger to stop them before hand. WTF?!? If they're going to snoop on us at least do something useful with it.

Yeah, I love that cliché they love to trot around to justify limitless wiretapping.
The real problem with that (beyond squashing liberties) is they have so much information to sort through they can never take action upon potential events in real time. Inaction by information overload.
