phone tapping

Phone tapping is the covert interception and monitoring of telephone conversations by authorized authorities or entities. It involves connecting to a phone line or device to listen in on calls without the knowledge of the parties involved. This is typically done for law enforcement reasons, such as investigating criminal activity, and requires specific legal approval. The goal is to gather information discreetly, ensuring privacy rights are balanced with security needs. Technically, it involves specialized equipment or software that captures audio data during active calls, allowing real-time or recorded review of the communication.
