It should be of interesting note to know that posts , nearly
identical to this original post by " supposed " journalists ..were
commonly seen on the cellular hacking NGs back in the 92 - 94 era.

they were fairly common and numerous. turned out they were most
often made by FBI personnel ( + possibly other government
agencies ) and initially the information made it's way into reports
used by the government and private manufactures to craft / draft
the super strict killer FCC EE3 cellular legislation and resultant
rule making. this rule making basically resulted in the death of
all USA cellular hacking and was used in most of the
anti-eavesdropping legislation too. it was claimed , in
about '94 , that the same information gained was used by the feds to
prosecute a number of people that supplied information to the
posters of the requests. people thought they were protected by
confidential reporter acts , when in reality they were actually
inter reacting directly with federal law enforcement people and THOSE
people are NOT required , by law , to be truthful with you. lieing
such as claiming to be journalists is not illegal for law enforcement
operatives.


interesting , slightly different in these posts is that the person is
seeking information strictly on ( illegal ) eavesdropping and
not the so called " hacking " like posts of the earlier era.
this , probably because " they " know that basic cellular
hacking is dead and that only " eavesdropping " could remain.

dunno what anyone , even law enforcement people , could expect to gain
by this old ploy / exploit , anymore. cellular hacking is dead and
analog cellular eavesdropping is experiencing the death rattle.
still .......... it's good to remember the historic relationships and
keep that in mind , nowadays. might also be some homeland
defense people with too much time on their hands too.
