Question

Can immigration tap someones phone without even seeing it?

Answer 1

I agree w/the first answer.

Answer 2

why would the line be tapped and why by immigration of all people?

in short yes the phone can be tapped quiet easily with a court order, the equipment can be very small and in some cases even in the exchange. the whole point of it been tapped is that the person in question doesnt know so it wont be obvious.

if a line is tapped by them then its obviously for a reason or they wouldnt have got a court order. is there anything you have come across that suggests the line is tapped as its rather odd to suspect one is with no reason.

Answer 3

yes, the taps are nomally placed on the frame in the central office.

if it is an illegal tap, then they place the tap at the access point and half-tap the line to redirect the monitored line to a distant location.

Answer 4

without a warrant no...its illegal to record someone without them knowing..
