Biden administration plans to fact-check private cell-phone messages?

@zantax

My text messages, between say, my wife and I aren’t private conversations?

Not to ATT. What makes you think they are? SMS is unencrypted

If we can’t get our disinfo via unsolicited SMS spam can we ever truly be free?

Are you actually defending the government reading peoples private communication in order to fact check it? Seriously?

That is not what is going to happen.

Charlie Kirk is lying to you.

Whether its going to happen or not you seem to be defending it.

Stopping spam…. Yeah…. I have no problem with it.

Hackers accessing your text messages is illegal.

Police accessing them without a warrant is illegal.

Government arm twisting to get the the phone companies to flag the messages and add fact checks is at best a gray area. Putin uses similar techniques to skirt around Russia constitutional protection for free speech.

Dims want to live in CHINA they should move to CHINA. I want to be free. I can delete spam, I cannot delete freedom. Cuba has done a good job deleting freedom till now when the population realizes freedom… Communism and socialism are failed systems.

[RTchoke]

Report spammer. Block.

Boy, that was ■■■■■■■ difficult.

[Bosun]

Yep it is easy to delete spam. But, deleting freedom is the most assinine notion I have heard libs put forward. We cannot make up the notions and narratives of liberals.

Freedom freedom

Freedom (I won’t let you down)
Freedom (I will not give you up)
Freedom (Gotta have some faith in the sound)
You’ve got to give what you take (It’s the one good thing that I’ve got)
Freedom (I won’t let you down)
Freedom (So please don’t give me up)
Freedom ('Cause I would really)
You’ve got to give what you take (really love to stick around)

Life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness. Don’t tread on me. Make Harris Biden a one term One Horse Dog Faced Pony Soldier administration.

It’s funny they think people will put up with it. Backlash incoming overreach alert.

Your conversations are not encrypted over SMS. I don’t know what else you need to hear

Oh I have heard more than enough. Listen to yourself defending this lol. I don’t give a crap if they are encrypted or not, the government is prohibited by law from spying on Americans without a warrant.

Katz v. United States

Katz v. United States , 389 U.S. 347 (1967), was a landmark decision of the U.S. Supreme Court in which the Court redefined what constitutes a “search” or “seizure” with regard to the protections of the Fourth Amendment to the U.S. Constitution.[[1]](Katz v. United States - Wikipedia

FOOTNOTELaFave2012§ 2.1(a)-1) The decision expanded the Fourth Amendment’s protections from the right of search and seizures of an individual’s “persons, houses, papers, and effects”, as specified in the U.S. Constitution, to include as a constitutionally protected area “what [a person] seeks to preserve as private, even in an area accessible to the public”.

I didn’t say the government should be able to spy on you.

I said ATT can

Umm no, government doesn’t get to cause others to spy on me either. People have apparently lost their minds, stuck too long at home I guess. But man oh man, try and see what happens.

[Bill.in.PA]

Not if AT&T is acting as an agent for the government.

An extreme case would for the government to outsource policing to a private contractor and then claim that the bill of rights no longer apply.

I am not suggesting they do that.

If ATT wants to find text messages that are spreading vaccine disinformation and add their own… I have no problem with that.

Are they in this situation?

And there you have it folks.

How cute. Judges aren’t stupid and neither are many Americans.
