I forgot to mention that the person who told me was a Federal Agent who actually did them. He also said the stuff about having to keep a person on the line to do a trace is false. They know where it came from immediately.

This was over 40 years ago so it is not new tech.

True, I used to work for a telecom so I know all about “official” tech used to wiretap.

If you want to wiretap someone and keep it “off the books” there are many ways for even a private individual to do so.

Given John Solomon’s sources, I would be worried that he could be tapped using off the shelf technology that if found could not be traced back.

You could very easily use a “raspberry pi” the size of s small flip phone battery included, to tap a line and do a drive by data collect from it after installing, using the pi to compress the calls into a mp3 format.

Then you just park across the street for a few minutes as you connect to it via wi-fi and download the adata or even better use the wi-fi on it to connect to the internet and have it post the files as they come in to a “ghost web site” or ip address.
