I for one must point out that I am NOT trying to pretend that the law does 
not exist. Heck, if that were the case I would not have asked the question, 
hence not caring whther or not the law had been changed.
My ignorance will show on this next question: what is the ECPA? Is that part 
of the FCC somehow? And isn't the FCC the one that can determine the status 
of listening to cellular or cordless phone conversations?
Thanks for the response.
