Whos listening to your calls

Apparently the Israeli secret service have included spy ware in some of the irc software released on mobiles.. it is well documented that Kazaa had spyware from Mossad (hence Kazaa lite was born), on sept 11 an sms was sent to an israeli mobile software company 1 hour before the attacks about what was about to happen.. (the CIA investigated this but later denied this).. Nokia has been secretly developing technology that will give it a 'back door ' to your phone - similar to the one Microsoft used in its NT software which gave a back door the American secret service. the buzzing/beeping sound you sometimes here from your mobile (when near a speaker) is the transmitter communicating with your phone (giving your whereabouts). The British Govt already has this this means ( in the Damilola case the defendents were able to be exactly pinpointed along with details of their conversation) which led to a collapse of the case.. the govt cannot release the full details of what means it has.. for obvious reasons.. Aol is another contender for this spyware with their 'own' dial up adapter /software..

he probably does not know that people can find out his home address just from his message above and come to kill his cat 😉

oh its very true 😊

i had a leturer in my HNC Computing and Communications, he actually was in the british army and was one of the developers of the tcpip protocol for the arpanet (army internet).
he was privy to all this information...don ask me how, but he was....he explained all this to us in quite some detail. 😮

also if you watch Enemy of the State movie, one can see some of this surveilance technology.

BIG BROTHER IS WATCHING :robot:

but i'm clean...soo i aint worried much :angel: ....honest 😃

although the Israeli Secret service already doing this..!!

To the guy who thinks this is nonsense... hes obviously gullible/dopey!!http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/in_depth/sci_tech/2000/dot_life/2487651.stm

The buzzing sound you hear for the first 10-15 seconds of a call is from the LED's for backlight :roll:

It is true that you can be traced whenever you make a call......but with no real accuracy.

Cell compaies can tell which transmitter you are close to.

I dont really care.....I am just a little human that is not so important...I will eventually go to heaven some day and the world will still be the same....I have other things to worry about than these theories...a LIFE!

No you should be worried the everyone is out to get the 'normal' people, don't you watch the X-Files? 😉 😃

The Truth is out there :roll:

That phone location service has been used in Finland to put many criminals
in the site of crime. And in one double murder case too.

But who cares about that if you dont have anything to hide.

Absolytely true 😉 :P 😃

There are so many people even in FInland, that the possibility is sooo low. 😉
And if you need security, use crypting.
Or better yet, throw away your phones, credit cards, PC, internet... and live in caves 😃 😉

Caves are crawling with insects! - Dont you know insects are all bugs! [What a lousy pun! Go on - Laugh]

That is nothing new. Here in SA, the govt has forced the 3 Mobile operators to install monitoring equipment that records all phonecalls at ultra high speed, and then scans them for certain "target words" and flags the conversation for later evaluation.
This is nothing new. I think the equipment is called "Medusa" (Could have got that name confused) and is already in use in the USA and the Uk, as well as a few other un-named countries.
All your conversations are recorder folks. If you can't deal with that, then the cave is definitely an option.
As for myself, I like to play with the ppl listening by inserting target words into the chat, and then talking to the "eavesdroppers"
If I am not posting here in a few weeks, then "they" got me!
😃

That is really not right.What about when someone without a badge does it,they go in jail.For the gov,its ok.What about phonesex,longdistance relationships 😃 Imagine this,you doing it with your girl ower the phone,and some secret service dude,wacking off 😃.Excuse my language please. 😃
The goverment here does not have that kind of equipment,yet.You could really give those guys truble by using words like,bomb,president,kill and stuff 😃

This has allegedly been going on with landlines for years.....Which is exactly why I like to drop words like kill, prime minister, bomb, assasinate, nuclear and genocide randomly in to telephone conversations!!

Like to mess with their heads!! 😃 :evil: 😃

Hehehe - just been reading posts, so im not the only that drops in 'hot words' every now and then for fun ehh

Well I know for a fact that govt, monitor cellular phone conversation (landline I dont know for sure). The mobile operators are supposed to offer this facility to the govt. (In india, sometime ago, the hansie cronje case was blown from under the covers because, the police were monitoring cell phone conversations, but quite unintentionally I must say)..

So it seems that this sort of thing goes on😊

Because were all so interesting 😊 They cant get enough of us! Mmmm Mr Anderson is having Chicken for dinner! Update the Files! Code Red! - Sir, is it peas or carrots with that.... Its PEAS!!!

Well, in a different perspective, I think it's an advantage for the tracking your whereabouts. I mean, what if you get kidnapped and you have your mobile with you. At least they would know each cell site your phone registers to during the travel.

But what if the phone is off? 😞

Hmmm yeah - or if you get lost you could get aprox whareabouts info save the RAF Valiantly coming out to get you in a heli with the thermo camera and the ... Well you get the idea - The basic whereabout can be used to out advatages - Harvest the power people!

It wud make things easier for US if Bin Laden signed up for a contract with a cell company or sumat....

ahh its crap, the governments trace everything
The Israeli secret service especially, they have even been caught spying on American companies, and military 3 times in the last 25 years. Yet america still shakes their hand (Nothing against either nation or nationality im just saying)

Yes the US if I recall about 8 years back there was a story (true or false I dont know) about phone lines being monitored for hot words. The XFiles even mentioned it in an episode cpl years later.

Especially now since Sept.11th you go search for alquada or binladen or other specific words on the net, and you can guarentee they are pulling up your site hoistroy from your ISP

its quite absourd really, I mean how much information do they really god damn need? And the sad thing is with more and more terrorist attacks, this "need" for survellience security is just going to intensify.

We may as well just start wearing bloody microphones for them, and strapping GPS transmitters to our asses now.

Besides, I don't think those people say Targets, etc. Rather, they say it in their own words (encrypted).

Some even use their 7650 😃

I think the guy monitoring those will have a data overload!
