You would think you would be good at that given your screen name "The Watcher".
You could have used the screen name "The Listener" too.
Sorry, had too. :-)
Good luck.
....and we are ALL going to be members of the bureaucracy doing the surveillance....cause, we're going to need every da*n one of us to do this! /sarcasm
Oh please. Unless you run a big telecom you don't need to worry about CALEA compliance.
The solution is to just say no, in large numbers. We have a government that is out of control. They are also trying to tag every farm animal in the country and farmers are just saying no. Remember the anthrax vaccine the statists wanted to mandate? It died when "first responders," in large numbers, simply said no. The beast can be beaten.
I'm going to call my First Amendment lawyer, Nunya Bidness. He'll stop this!
Quis custodiet ipsos custodes?
Ping for later
Link?
I was told that my satellite connection is totally secure because a hacker would have to park in my driveway to get access, and I live in the middle of 15 acres, with a lake on one side. Is that true?
This statement isn't completely clear.
The part I have placed in bold is a non-sequitur.
However, if by this statement you mean that all ISPs will be REQUIRED by the federal government to tap and record digital communications usage by ANY specific user....then you are wrong.
What you refer to as CALEA is called The Digital Telephony Act of 1994.
It requires phone companies and ISPs to provide law enforcement officials only with assurance that they will be able to "tap" or have access to the content of any communications incorporating new digital technology in the same way that traditional voice transmissions are currently accessible.
That is quite a different thing than actually recording these communications. Quite a different thing indeed.
The infrastructure needed to make these assurances was far more cumbersome for analog data, yet there was not the same hue and cry as we are seeing for the enactment of the digital data portions of the Act.
Piece by piece, decree by decree, we're losing our rights. The Republicans better realize that most of us conservatives believe in less government and more personal freedoms, not less.
