Cops to Congress: We need logs of Americans' text messages

12-04-2012 • news.cnet.com

AT&T, Verizon Wireless, Sprint, and other wireless providers would be required to record and store information about Americans' private text messages for at least two years, according to a proposal that police have submitted to the U.S. Congress.

CNET has learned a constellation of law enforcement groups has asked the U.S. Senate to require that wireless companies retain that information, warning that the lack of a current federal requirement "can hinder law enforcement investigations."

They want an SMS retention requirement to be "considered" during congressional discussions over updating a 1986 privacy law for the cloud computing era -- a move that could complicate debate over the measure and erode support for it among civil libertarians.

Just part of the method that TOP police would use to crush their sales competitors in the field of contraband sales. If this kind of thing goes far enough, EVERYBODY will need to become part of law enforcement just to run his own business, legit or not.

Soon we will ALL need to be Government bosses, just to survive. So you see? We need all those illegals that come up over the border. We need them so that when we finally wake up, and become part of Government as a Government boss, we will have somebody to boss around, if for no other reason, than to take the focus off ourselves.

Get into government, now, while you still can. Create a Government position of authority for yourself... just to survive.
