The FBI is getting warrants to seize phones, what about warrants to tap phones? (Original Post) fightforfreedom Sep 2022 OP
I have been thinking that too. They don't usually disclose wire tap warrants Walleye Sep 2022 #1
Right. Making wire tap warrants public defeats the purpose. Irish_Dem Sep 2022 #3
We probably wouldn't know about any of these search warrant if the subjects weren't blabbing Walleye Sep 2022 #4
Exactly. They are all such whiners/babies, we know everything that is happening to them. Irish_Dem Sep 2022 #5
Mar-a-Lago has a remote surveillance system. I wonder if it's hackable Walleye Sep 2022 #6
Didn't China sell us most of the software and hardware? Irish_Dem Sep 2022 #9
I was wondering if the FBI was watching the Trump family watching the search at Mar-a-Lago Walleye Sep 2022 #16
Or Trump and his SS agents watching the FBI watching them. Irish_Dem Sep 2022 #18
Unhackable. Totally secure. usonian Sep 2022 #13

That is, the things they know about.

I would think they are being surveilled covertly.

Then I would say it is all hackable.

Edit to add: Would love to be a fly on the wall during Trump surveillance.
But it would requite a strong stomach.

FBI claims that the SS has some superior surveillance to the point the FBI asks the SS for help when they get stuck.

It makes it difficult to do a wire tap at the carrier level.

They need to do it from the phone itself. Different tech, but it would basically allow them to capture communications at the screen level, unencrypted.

But they do have the kit to do it.

that by now (or since he left office) that his communications are being intercepted. Why else meet on the fairway with his two bit cronies. If it weren’t so pathetic it would be hilarious.

hints they might be catching on. Here in militia country, the foot soldiers got the message. They are using HAM and CB. The FCC knows, they have TWICE issued warnings about plotting violence on the airwaves and have prosecuted several operators for illegal towers. IIRC a plane very nearly collided with one recently in FL.
