WASHINGTON — With ongoing discussions of foreign hacking and wiretapping come new concerns over an unusually high amount of suspicious cellphone activity in the nation’s capital.

A telecom security company, ESD America, which has been hired by the U.S. government, says the suspicious activity likely indicates a foreign nation is monitoring the smartphones of American officials.

"the company was hired in January as part of a 90-day pilot program"

Which they would like to see made a 180-day pilot program.

Very true. Everyone spies on everyone else. Even our allies spy on us (I'd call them "friends" but there's no such word in international diplomacy).

We as a nation should go retro to land lines, dump your cell phone.

It's even easier to tap land lines.

Not only does everyone else spy on us but WE spy on us too!

True, true. And don't forget corporate spying.
