Thats some bullshit.

Well that sucks that I'm not surprised..

Wouldn't that be the same as a wire tap? Just utilizing the already in place mic?
I believe a warrant is required for a wire tap.
OHHHH wait! That's right, this administration doesn't follow the constitution and makes up new lies based on fear and the threat of terrorism to twist the constitution as they see fit, i.e. the patriot act, so they can go against the constitution as they see fit. Forget what the founding fathers say! Who are they but a bunch of dead guys from 200 years ago?
If Bush and his regime can stand in front of Congress and say that illegal, warrant-less wire tapping of US citizens was necessary to fight the "war on terror", what makes you think they wouldn't do this?

I believe it was Thomas Jefferson who said something to the effect of "It is the not only the rights of citizens to question their government, but it is their responsibility to do so, and to revolt against a government that no longer serves the interests of it's people."

That utube video was heavily edited.

The full FOX news report would have been done about a year ago.

I think the story is full of crap.

Over here I've been trying to find out how to get some very simple data:

Note how little information is available from raw cell phone signals.

To monitor your cell phone would require the help of the cell phone company. To get that requires a warrant.

The reason it requires a warrant is that the phone company doesn't want to get sued.

Most cell phones have programming modes which you can access by punching in a code. Most of em I've seen have had an option to change the GPS settings. I've never played with it, but I'd say if you mess with it enough, you could disable the GPS or atleast throw the Man off.

You don't need a warrant to intercept calls coming from a cell phone because it's open air. I forget what term was used but this has been going on for a while now. Police can set up a transmitter and intercept your calls and this information can be used in court even though a warrant wasn't acquired.

Even police using the cell phones mic to listen in on callers isn't a new thing. I don't know why it's just now being talked about. Peace.
