Phone taps?

[mick10-07]

TweetHow can you tell if your phone is tapped? I'm just wondering, I've been hearing lots of stories about illegal taps and crap like that. Anyone work for a phone company?

Keep in mind that I live in canada.....you have to have a warrent i think.

TweetWith today's technology you can't tell.

It's pretty damn rare to have your phone tapped however. Yes they need a warrent. And it'd have to be for something big...not just for buying personal amounts of steroids.

TweetDepends:

If it is the Government agency such as NSA, CSE you will never know they listen at its source.

The police, same they will tap at the phone company.

private: well, you can hear some glitches, tick tack, phone acts weirdly, such as lower volume tone then back to normal. line cut short and back etc...

TweetMost people use a cordless phone which can usually be listened to by anyone with a basic police scanner.
In the event someone, let's say the police, are tapping your phone without a warrant, any evidence they may obtain about whatever you may be doing will not be admissible in court first of all (fruit of the poisonous tree) and secondly they wouldn't bring it up anyways because they obtained it without a warrant.
I doubt the police would do that though. It serves no purpose other than to perhaps satisfy a hunch that you are indeed involved in criminal activity and that they do need to conduct a full, legal investigation. Personally, I think pulling someone's trash would probably be more effective in most cases.

TweetAll i have is cordless phones in my house, my buddy can pick them up on his scanner. I wonder who else can..........I usually talk in code if it comes down to it, but some of my buddies are meat heads and just spit stuff out.
