   in the greater context of everything in their surveillance arsenal that's   
   tracking everything and everyone universally (globally, worldwide) at all   
   times, phones, even old-fashioned landlines (vulnerable to wiretaps since   
   the horseless carriage https://duckduckgo.com/?q=pen+trap+trace+telegraph)   
   anything wireless or connected to any source of power is surely monitored   
   continuously . . . the only good news is that the only thing they've ever   
   cared about is what the bible calls "cupidity", the star-crossed marriage   
   of vanity and avarice, so anything that is not that is not on their radar
