My calls, you maroon. What if the FBI entered my home without a warrant and without probable cause and took my phone and logged the numbers I had logged on my caller ID. Would you be so apologizing for them for that?
Gawd, what have you people become that you cannot understand basic rights any longer?
Maybe some know a basic right when they see it. My telephone touchpad is not protected by the 4th amendment.
But they aren't doing that at all, are they?
If you have a problem with this you had better take it up with your service provider. It is their records being used, not yours. You have no obligation to use their service.
Phone calls being made are analyzed. They by no means belong to you.
If you build the infrastructure and run a company to allow this sort of communication, then you can decide what to do with the records that are generated.
Your outlook is typical of entitlement liberals.
I understand your perspective, but disagree with the conclusions:
(1) aren't telephone carrier networks private property? ie aren't you using a private facility, therefore they have rights to the data they compile?
(2) if this is so, then can't they share/sell it with/to whomever they wish?
(3) how is this any different from tracking cars on a freeway (vs searching them) or tracking postal stats (as opposed to searching them)?
Please, while you may have a strong opinion on what may or may not be allowed by our former US Constitution, attacking another Freeper like this does not advance your view.
I dislike (to be very kind) what the TSA does at airports to the point I have not taken a flight in 4 years but I will not attack any Freeper who believes the TSA's actions are Constitutional. I simply disagree.
In reality, a list of phone number A to phone number B does not even pin down which citizen made the call. Further investigation would be required and I assume you and I would be on the same side of the privacy fence in said investigation. We would want warrants to investigate who physically was on Phone A when speaking to the person on Phone B.
