They’re probably just capturing SMS messages or regular calls. Which is still illegal without a warrant, but who watches the watchers? Use encrypted chats and encrypted calls if you’re worried.

Our local sheriff is using some spy level shit in our county that he refuses to explain.
He keeps “happening” upon crimes just on accident. yesterday it was “stopped to take a pee” and two days before that it was “just happen to follow and pull over a guy with lots of pounds of pot hidden in the car.”
The US police are spying on Americans phones, internet, GPS, and everything with no judicial recourse because it is corporations spying and then “giving the info” to the police for money.
The US law enforcement has gone full STAZI

I know. Who SAYS that? It’s by accident. One doesn’t plan these things.

'Round here we say “with accident” or “of accident”, thank you

As venerable old neuromonkey once said:
Welp. Just let the nukes fly, then. First it’s “on accident,” and before long you’ve got meth addicted baby prostitute warlords running the local Walmart.

That’s also a red flag for a dirty cop getting information from criminal group A to go after competition.
You should probably move.
