1. More of Bush's lies revealed.....
The terrorists use VOIP with off the shelf computer technology and set up their own telephone companies. They can't be tapped. The NSA is wiretapping US citizens for other reasons.

3. I can't watch, but I do know that they started wiretapping BEFORE 9/11,
and BEFORE they started to pretend to track "terrorists."

You can't tell me the MSM isn't smart enough to figure it out. This guy figured it out.

6. Geeks With Tinfoil Hats
Technically, he's correct. You can download something like Asterix or FreePBX and install it. But, why bother to go to all that trouble, when you can just use Skype?

As for him being on the No-Fly List - a lot of other people are, too. Including Ted Kennedy. It's mostly a matter of how common your name is.

Dude needs to adjust his tinfoil hat a bit. :tinfoilhat: :tinfoilhat: :tinfoilhat:

8. Already being done.
VoIP is every bit as tapable as any other type of data packet. It is not an easy thing to do, but I would be willing to wager that DARPA has this well developed by now. The public grants for a VoIP tapping application would tend to indicate that the Pentagon is already fairly far along in their development of this type of technology and are looking to expand the scope of the project.

9. Incorrect
All forms of data transmitted electronically can be intercepted, decoded, and organized in a plethora of ways.

You want privacy send a letter.
