@regular joe:
Every phone you make overseas, is recorded and analyzed in an AT&T building in SF. There is no warrant from a judge on any kind of case be case basis here. Mobile phone traffic is all monitored, as well.
Now, they're building a massive new facility near Salt Lake City, which will be able to monitor ALL phone calls, within the country. Again, this is not a case by case decision from a judge looking at a warrant - this is your gov't analyzing every phone call you make - period.
Perhaps this is what is needed for our reasonable safety in this day and age, but I would like to see EXACTLY why and whether this overreach into our privacy, is really necessary.
@BigV: I'm looking for it.
