You know Cory Doctorow would hate me saying this, and I’m not 100% on it, but - remember the FBI Stingray that intercepted cell phones? Sometimes I think that we the people ought to have cell “towers” installed all over the Capitol and the office buildings, so that all texts to/from our Congresscritters and to/from our White House folks are intercepted and archived with metadata. Of course, I’m from Florida where “Government in the Sunshine” means all email for state email systems is archived, and I believe texts are supposed to be saved too but I don’t know if there’s a technological means of doing so or if it’s the honor system.
