TMobile now has the authority to read your personal text messages. The mobile provider quietly updated their terms of conditions to monitor SHAFT (sex, hate, alcohol, firearms, and tobacco). The list of questionable categories may now be monitored by the Cellular Telephone Industries Association (CITA) as we move closer to full totalitarianism.
Other companies, such as AT&T, have a long history of partnering with the US government to enable backdoor access into their systems. Warrants are no longer required for investigations as EVERYONE is seen as a potential criminal. Violations could come with a fine of up to $2,000.
