" a warrantless #wiretap was used on a former aide as part of the probe to find the source of internal leaks, The Guardian reported Tuesday.
"White House officials, including Vice President JD #Vance, were told that three aides fired by #Hegseth, including former senior adviser Dan Caldwell, were outed by the illegal National Security Agency wiretap"

So, if I read this right, there was an investigation into leaks of secret Pentagon plans to take control of the Panama Canal being investigated by Pete Hegseth's PERSONAL lawyer, who is NOT a government employee but presumably is the same lawyer you may remember from fiascos such as SgnalGate, which used illegal NSA wiretaps.

What a bunch of clowns!

Putin must be so proud....

ustice or Justification? Understanding Federal Wiretap Policies and How the FBI Uses Them
By James Seidel | CC News Network

When Americans hear the term “wiretap,” it often conjures up images of covert government surveillance and spy thrillers. However, the reality is far more complex—and heavily regulated. The federal government’s use of electronic surveillance is governed by some of the most restrictive investigative rules in American law, codified in Title III of the Omnibus Crime Control and Safe Streets Act of 1968, later expanded by the Electronic Communications Privacy Act of 1986. These laws reflect the invasive nature of surveillance technology and its potential to violate Fourth Amendment rights, which protect against unreasonable searches and seizures.

Federal Oversight: What the Law Requires
Before the FBI or any federal law enforcement agency can initiate a wiretap, they must first establish probable cause that the surveillance will uncover evidence of a federal felony.

So wie sich das anhört sind die Hacker durch die Vordertüre gekommen, also wahrscheinlich über diese Wiretap Schnittstellen die Provider für Strafverfolgungsbehörden einbauen müssen. Wundert einen jetzt nicht wirklich, oder? https://www.heise.de/news/Wegem-schwerem-Cyberangriff-auf-US-Provider-FBI-wirbt-fuer-Verschluesselung-10187110.html #hacking #wiretap #e2eencryption

#China #Wiretaps #Americans in 'Worst Hack in Our Nation's History'
China's gov. hackers were able to deeply penetrate U.S. #telecommunications in ways that Biden's administration hasn't yet acknowledged. Hackers were able to listen to calls and read text messages, reportedly exploiting system #US authorities use to #wiretap Americans in criminal cases. Worst part? Networks are still compromised and it may take incredibly drastic measures to boot them from U.S. systems.
