BIG Brother Can Now Tap Digital Cellular Data....

>>FCC wiretap rules delight FBI, disappoint critics
WASHINGTON (Reuters) - The Federal Communications Commission Friday gave the FBI new authority to tap digital and wireless phones, delighting the Justice Department and bitterly disappointing privacy advocates and local phone companies.

Hot off the press from yesterday.

This looks like a momentum play gone astray.

The FCC has given the FBI power to map, locate, track and store any and all data - voice, text, numeric - which is transmitted over the nation's wireless networks.

Looks like a massive "back door" move to me.

Where are our representatives?

Are OUR voices being represented in this decision?

Anyone esle awake out there?

Or should we just all roll over and trust that the people behind this move are just trying to protect and serve us.

Peace.

GO!!
