When I was with WorldCom/MCI we tried to put up towers and no matter what we did every tower would be striped for parts within a week. Eventually they scrapped the whole idea. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Laid Back Posted January 9, 2017 Report Share Posted January 9, 2017 Good news.. This to prevent any unauthorized person to listen other person phone call Eavesdropping is the unauthorized real-time interception of a private communication, such as a phone call, instant message, videoconference or fax transmission. The term eavesdrop derives from the practice of actually standing under the eaves of a house, listening to conversations inside. Go privacy Go security Go communications 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
