All electronic (digital) communications, spoken and written, are being recorded.

Erin Burnett:
Tim, is there any way, obviously, there is a voice mail they can try to get the phone companies to give that up at this point. It's not a voice mail. It's just a conversation. There's no way they actually can find out what happened, right, unless she tells them?

Tim Clemente:
No, there is a way. We certainly have ways in national security investigations to find out exactly what was said in that conversation. It's not necessarily something that the FBI is going to want to present in court, but it may help lead the investigation and/or lead to questioning of her. We certainly can find that out.

EB:
So they can actually get that? People are saying, look, that is incredible.


TC:
No, welcome to America. All of that stuff is being captured as we speak whether we know it or like it or not.

Some members of Congress said he was a liar coinciding with the opening of Oliver Stone's movie on him.  TryhardNobody is just being a good little puppet.

I think the opinions are pretty split. However, those who side with the "traitor" opinion tend to be ill informed. Phone Post 3.0

This is totally correct. People that take the time to actually read the Snowden archive, and begin to understand the scope of the NSA surveillance apparatus, generally start to view him as a hero.

Anyway, if security is a concern of yours, use the Signal app:


"Another increasingly popular app is Signal (formerly RedPhone and TextSecure). Offering both texting and secure calling, the EFF gives Signal a green light across the board. It has all of the encryption features of Wickr, and also has open source code and documented encryption processes. Matthew Green says that it “does not retain a cache of secrets from connection to connection.” The Intercept also endorses Signal, with the caveat that any app you install is only as secure as the device you install it on. Other endorsers include Bruce Schneier, Edward Snowden, and Laura Poitras (for whatever that may be worth to you personally).

Like Wickr, Signal also has a desktop version. And, since it’s tied to the device, it doesn’t save your password on a server like Wickr does. From Signal’s website:

The Axolotl ratchet in Signal is the most advanced cryptographic ratchet available. Axolotl ensures that new AES keys are used for every single message, and it provides Signal with both forward secrecy and future secrecy properties. The Signal protocol also features enhanced deniability properties that improve on those provided by OTR, except unlike OTR all of these features work well in an asynchronous mobile environment."

For those who would like to audit Signal’s code themselves, you can find that here:

https://github.com/WhisperSystems

(quoted from here: https://www.whiterose.us/eff-secure-messaging-scorecard/)

Signal has Android, IOS and desktop versions available.

Google already monitors gmail and google usage so no surprise. 

It doesn't even matter what google chooses to monitor; Snowden proved that the NSA completely bypassed google and accesses all the data being sent/received to their servers without google even knowing. Phone Post 3.0
I thought google cooperated through prism. Phone Post 3.0

I disagree about Rand. 



Ron was unique in that he stuck to his principles and didn't budge to play the political game.  He got a lot of respect and a huge following but he was dead in the water.  If you don't play the game you aren't getting anywhere near the presidency.  If you don't win then you can't affect any change.  Rand tried to compromise a bit hoping to get further than his father.  It was a worthy attempt.

I like Rand besides his religious shit. No politician is perfect but I think he would be a great change. Phone Post 3.0

Oh so you think he is a liar because some members of Congress say he is?



Let's completely ignore that the NSA hasn't denied one single leak he has revealed.  Their only response is anonamous admissions from them that they want him dead.   But I'm sure every criminal wants the same of the detective that catches them red handed.

Let's not forget that the director of national intelligence perjured himself in front of Congress. It's ridiculous that shit like that goes on with no accountability.

Most transparent president ever... As promised. Phone Post 3.0
