Ex-Secret Service agent: Media missing 1 huge wiretap point
WND ^ | 3-6-2017 | Paul Bremmer

Posted on 03/06/2017 9:25:25 PM PST by Trump_vs_Evil_Witch

'The FBI's not going to tell the Secret Service if they're monitoring the president-elect'

“The Secret Service does ECM sweeps, electronic counter-measures, where they go in frequently and look for listening devices, radio frequencies, all kinds of things to make sure the president or president-elect is not being, in fact, wiretapped or listened in on on specific phone lines,” Bongino revealed.

The former agent, noting Trump had Secret Service protection as a candidate, thinks it’s much more likely the Secret Service discovered something while performing one of their ECM sweeps of Trump Tower and later found out it was the DOJ that had ordered the surveillance.

AT&T is the root of all evil, seriously I dislike them intensely. The overt spying devices they are responsible for installing are all over the interstates. It is just unreal!

“Don’t forget that Newt’s phone calls were recorded by an old couple in florida using a off-the-shelf scanner back in the 90’s.”

I don’t believe that for a second, at least not the “old couple did it” part.

***************
That was with analog AMPS cell technology in the 800 band... it was really just an “in the clear” radio transmission... if you had a Motorola cell phone you could just punch in #testmode* and then select a channel to listen in on... the old couple had a scanner with 800 band access.. that’s all.

One method I heard of preventing eavesdropping through windows is to play music in the air space between the window panes.

I glass installer once told me that they installed the windows at one of the intelligence agencies and that’s what they did.
**********************
That would work if the gap between panes had your typical nitrogen fill... after all music/sound needs a transport mechanism... if there was a vacuum between the panes a laser microphone would likely work on the inner pane although you’d need a light color that can penetrate the outer pane cleanly which likely has some barrier to UV .. more than likely the speaker/sound source was directed or attached to the pane or frame of the window.

“Happened. Search FR for the details.”

What I figure happened was that hired professionals who knew what they were doing performed the intercept and gave the tape to the “old couple” who were Dem operatives who then gave the tape to Rep. Jim McDermott who was investigating Gingrich.

Bell Labs went rogue around the time they acquired NCR/Comten communications and reverse engineered a really bad copy of IBM’s 37xx communication controllers which morphed into our current IP backbone..

I'm pretty sure a crafty spook-geek could transform your average desk phone into a handy-dandy surveillance "bug".

...as was done to the "direct line" phones to the Pentagon that were on the desks of many state governors in the 60s. This was first found during the early 70s in the governor's office in MD.

AT&T at the time claimed it was a "mistake in wiring" (roll eyes)

See my #69 During a boring meeting in the MD governor's office, someone unscrewed the transmitter grill of the handset. Looking at the innards, he determined it was "live" and would remain so even if receiver was "on hook" (cradled)

There are only two wires to the transmitter in a handset, so the AT&T explaination of a "mistake in wiring" was totally bogus.

I'm sure the scumbags were trying to bring Trump down but I also believe they were fishing for material to blackmail him. This is how these dirty bastards operated over the last 8 years.

I think were seeing about 25 years of unrestrained government corruption at the highest levels being publicly exposed to the world. It’s unraveling right before our eyes.

Since 2009 the CPU die includes a separate stand alone processor independent of those available within the system. Only the chip manufacturer has access to it’s program, or whomever leans on them.

Does that include server cpu’s like xeon or just consumer? My current computer predates 2009... I know they have the ability to access cpu “options” via the bios.

“In otherwords, it is much, much worse than is even being claimed or admitted to.”

It usually is!

the Secret Service has tools not many people have. And, they can electronically monitor a phone and tell if there is electronic surveillance on the phone.

"They" don't even need an internal device.

At least 15 years ago, the FBI had a listening device that used a reflected laser to hear conversations inside. It needed to be lined up properly to reflect off the window-glass of the room to be surveilled.
