Worried about the FBI eavesdropping?

[Mark R]

So I watched this BS DVD last night.

Apparently, this mafia boss and his cronies was so concerned about FBI eavesdropping, that he installed this air filled glass bubble in his swimming pool.

He'd pop his head into the bubble, and then make phone calls from his cell while inside the bubble.

Apparently this is great for privacy?

Is there any plausibility in this, or is it all Holywood BS? I suppose it might work against laser eavesdropping.

Were you watching Domino?

If the phone was bugged that would be useless... Though if there's just mics around the house then I suppose it would help some.

Sounds useless to me. If the phone is connecting wirelessly, how is that going to help

think of it man, if a cell signal can get to your air bubble then any radio signal can

if FBI wanted to spy on you, cell phone is the least of your worries. :roll:

Speaking of laser evesdropping -

Those "mics" are very cool. The use of a high frequency mid IR pulsed LIDAR set makes it extremely hard to find on the window and with modern post DSP, conversations can be heard in the strangest of places. :Q

:laugh: I wonder if the director consciously knows how stupid that is when they film it. Sort of like Spielberg knowing how stupid it is for water to kill the Aliens (microbe in it) or the fact the aliens plant pods 10,000 years ago but wait until humans have nukes to invade).

I got it! The mafia boss is actually worried the FBI are aliens who cannot touch water or feel its essence ... wait that is Signs. HMMMM ... I need coffee.
