Face It:: The Internet is Yelling Across a Crowded Room

[Phillip McCleod]

23. wrong again.

again you fail to understand the technology.

nobody has to *record* calls, chats or emails.. you do that when you make the call or send the text/email. it *is* a recording itself.. not just one recording, but copy after copy as it bounces from disk to disk, mail server to mail server, phone to cell (radio) tower to outgoing signal server to satellite to Verizon to the NSA and eventually to the incoming dish network to another cell tower to someone else's phone. even if you're calling your neighbor.

it's *all* recordings, and at each point, there are security policies and mechanisms in place to protect that data.

and to analyze it.

including your emails, if you use gmail, hotmail, aol, yahoo, etc. machines read it all. all of it.

get an email on your own dedicated mail server and that fact may be partly ameliorated on your end, but if you send it to your friend [e-mail] then it will be read by a learning machine anyway. that is not conspiracy theory, that is what gmail, hotmail, aol, yahoo, etc. have said they do. this is what they do, like or don't like it, care or don't care.
