Listen Up: 17 Signs That You Are Being Wiretapped

Do you hear strange noises on your phone line? Do you feel like your secrets aren't safe? You're not as paranoid as you might think. Mobsters and cheating spouses aren't the only ones that get wiretapped. In fact, just about anyone who possesses confidential information is a prime target for a wiretap, so it's important that you know the warning signs. Keep an eye out for these subtle clues to avoid becoming a victim of information theft.

1# Your secrets are out. If you've found out that somehow, someone has gotten their hands on your confidential information, there's a good chance that you're being spied on — and probably wiretapped. For example, if your company's confidential product designs end up in the hands of your competitor, you very well may be a victim of the underground-information industry.

2# You hear strange noises, like clicking, popping, static and humming. Often, surveillance devices will make small noises on a phone line. Specifically, if you hear static, scratching or popping, it may be caused by a capacitive discharge, which is created when two conductors — like a wiretap on a phone line — are connected. Additionally, high-pitched humming noises are an indicator of a wiretap. A tapped phone line can be verified with a sound-bandwidth sensor on a low frequency. If the indicator pops up a few times each minute, there's a very good chance your line is tapped.

3# Your phone makes noise on its own. If you hear noises coming from your phone even when you're not using it, it may have been turned into an eavesdropping microphone and speaker. This is achieved with a hookswitch bypass and means that someone can probably hear everything you say or do within 20 feet of the phone. Additionally, a dial tone while your phone is on the hook is a sign of a slave eavesdropping device. This can be verified using an external amplifier.

4# Your radio has strange interference. Some eavesdropping devices use frequencies that are close to the FM radio band. To find out if your line is tapped with one of these gadgets, you can set your radio to mono, tune in to the far end of the band and listen for squeals, moving around the room if necessary. You should also listen for anomalies in your car radio, because antennas are often used by eavesdroppers.

5# Your environment just seems different. A wiretapper who has gained access to your home or office may move furniture in order to gain access to lines. If something seems strange — for instance, the couch has moved slightly or rug imprints are different — your line just might be tapped.

6# Your outside phone box has extra hardware. Sometimes, a physical check is required to notice a wiretap. Take a look at the outside of your phone box and look for anything unusual, such as hardware that seems like it was hastily installed. You should be sure to check the "restricted" side of the box, which will require a special Allen wrench.

7# You find a recording machine. Don't assume that everything on your phone is there because your provider put it there. If you've found a recording device or something else that looks suspicious, check it out. Follow your wires to make sure that they're clean.

Real Id they can't stop talking about it


The Real ID was in the news the other day when Homeland Wrecker Chertoff demanded states comply immediately. They cut the cost of the project in half, hoping the money struggling states would accept. But there not, Upon further research I see if your state rejects it, you become non citizens. Since 17 states already have, Welcome my fellow refugees. You will be denied entry on planes, trains and automobiles.

This was also brought up during the Florida msnbc debate Ghoulie mentioned tamper proof ids for security reasons. Its funny how some states have strict standards in place such as photo id, social security card, birth certificate and proof of address, to name a few.

I was denied my licence renewal because my birth certificate had a tear. I had to go 30 miles out my way to get another copy. Another time I brought my friend to take his licence test and I mistakenly forgot my older insurance card. I had my new one that takes effect in a few days. Guess what they refused it didn't matter that my policy didn't change was simply renewed. It didn't matter that they have the information on file. It didn't matter that my policy number didn't even change.

Some states let illegal immigrants get licences with no id and let them go when they get caught driving without them. While arresting us for not complying with the smallest law. Why are we under the scope? When did we become public enemy number one?

If you wanted tighter restrictions on Ids and licences then do it. Dint lie out your ass for the reasons if you wanted a unified system then enforce it. The only gaps are what was created by you. Stop blaming the states for your failures and stop blaming us.

Noone wants a national Id and we wont take them. Americans are not dumb enough to think that putting all there personal info on one source is protection against identity theft. Maybe if you had a better track record wire tapping, torture, secret prisons, illegal proxy wars, etc. Someone might believe you, but I don't.

Chris Dodd and ACLU - Petition to Stop FISA


President Bush wants Congress to pass a bill that lets the government spy on the phone calls and emails of Americans without a warrant.

He also wants a bill that makes sure the truth about illegal spying on the emails and phone calls of Americans is never exposed. He does this by stopping lawsuits against phone companies that illegally handed over the phone calls and emails of Americans to the government.

But very soon, the Senate will vote on a bill to regulate spying on the emails and phone calls of Americans. What we don’t know is whether Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid will ask the Senate to take up a bill that was written closely with the Bush administration, or a more reasonable bill.


Tell Senator Reid you don’t want lawbreakers to be let off the hook. And you don’t want the government to seize your phone calls and emails without a warrant.

The bill Bush wants stops pending lawsuits against phone companies that illegally handed over the phone calls and emails of Americans. Stopping lawsuits that could uncover the truth about illegal spying lets him off the hook. And it gives no incentives for companies to follow the law in the future.

Senator Reid needs to hear from every American who wants him to stand up for our privacy and not let phone companies off the hook. You can take action by signing a petition to Senator Reid now.
