[QUOTE="GrannySueSnaps, post: 1591559, member: 328623"] Unfortunately, I think the key is to use your electronics with the mindset there is no assumption of privacy. It isn't just law enforcement or government we need to be concerned with but the general public as well as those who get rich off of stolen information. Be wise and don't make it easy for them. Also be aware of protecting the devices from viruses and malware that can wipe everything you have. Backup frequently! What if our rights should we be compromised? It isn't so much our rights that is a problem but the ability to determine who did this and be able to prove what they did. I worked in the Attorney General's Office in my State and sometimes had calls routed to me from an elderly person's phone. Telemarketers can be relentless and even bully the elderly to get information. I would answer the calls as if I was elderly and stall them getting as much information as possible while recording. Even with that we were only able to get a couple of convictions a year. [/QUOTE]
