Is this true? cell phone companies watchin you

So the terms and conditions states no nudity on the pics? I doubt it.

last i knew sprint was the only secure cellular system around... the feds actually couldn't spy on you. but they were trying to fix that, not sure if it went through yet or not

No cell phone is secure.

i'm sure you can intercept them. but there are to many phones to spy on.

he probably sent it to his friend and his friends mom busted him

sprint used to be with its digital signal.. i believe it is encrypted or something. anyways, something prevented law enforcement from finding you or attaching to your signal and getting the dl on ya.

i think you missed my point, that the cell phone companies look at these files on purpose? and report them

I think it's only cell phones in the states that are insecure, cos it's all on the old AMPs system, but here in Australia, and in Europe, where the cell phones use CDMA / GSM, messages are encrypted using algorithms / keys that are never actually transmitted accross the network, thus the security offered by cell phones is better than land lines!
Having said that, all calls & pictures send via the network must pass through a whole lot of technology, and there are goverment laws & regulations (here in Australia, and probably the world) that specify the government has powers to listen/record any phone conversations / msgs, if they've got the right warrents.

So as a summary answer, in the USofA, your cell phones are not very secure, in the rest of the world we're a fair bit more secure, however realistically the government has powers to do what they want!
