NSA releases transcript of the most common recorded "phone call type"

[JoePhilly]

After recording millions of phone calls, the NSA has compiled a transcript that reflects the most common "call type".

Having identified this "call type", they can filter it out and focus on the terrorists.

This is the transcript of that call type.

Girl: "I love you."

Boy: "I love you to."

Girl: "Ok, good night"

Boy: "Good night"

Girl: "Did you hang up."

Boy: "Umm, No."

Girl: "Hang up!"

Boy: "No. You hang up."

Girl: "NO ... you hang up."

Boy: "You hang up".

Girl: "You hang up"

Boy: "No, you first"

Girl: "Ok, let's hang up at the same time."

Boy: Ok ... ready, 1, 2, 3, hang up."

Girl: "You didn't hang up."

Boy: "Neither did you."

Girl: "Ok, let's try again ... "

Boy: "Ok, 1, 2, 3.

This goes on until one of their cell phone batteries dies.

And this is why we need the huge data center in Utah. It represents about 80% of all calls.

1. The NSA does not do wiretaps. It is the FBI that wiretaps telephones. n/t

6. You got that right

And t4o is wrong, too.

BTW, here's something about our constitution

The constitution limits what the government can do. It protects the people from the government. It even says the powers not given, there in the constitution, are reserved to the people.

What the 4th says is that the government shall not fucking pry into the people's lives without just cause and then it may, but only after a warrant.

There is nothing in the document telling the people what they can not do. It does tell what the government can and can't do.

Anti-constitutionalists just love ignorant people.

8. Ummm ... The government is the people.

First ... the 4th amendment prevents UNREASONABLE searches, not all searches.

And so any debate here hinges on how that term, UNREASONABLE, is defined.

Of course you and the Tea Party folks can fight over which of you best represents a true "Constitutionalist" perspective.

3. LOL. Brings back memories. Though back then there were only landline phones

and depending on location, (local or not local), the calls then were very costly when one woke up the next morning
and the phone call was still going on.

(and of course every single call back then was notated and anyone who got a phone bill would know that every single call
they made was indeed tracked

(let alone that anyone with a phone was known as they provided the phone and numbers and your name appeared in a published
phone book with your number and address even.

4. Ah, the good ol days of freedom.

5. Most are boring but some are not.

Back in the day, I knew of a switchman in a central office who worked nights. When the operators handled a particularly interesting call, they'd patch it down to the switchroom. A lot of these were from payphones in bars, etc.

7. LOL

Yep!

10. They just 'listen' for key words

like cat litter, Meowmix and cat.

...if they listened to my last conversation.

11. (funny)

But you don't have anything against newly hired and well-paid phone snoopers in Utah, eh?

I mean, what if they have children to feed and can't find any other job?

What if they have huge student loans to pay back?

Why would anyone be so cruel as to denying them any job? (If these are the only new ones available.)
