Look at his location. The Telcom act is a US act not a Canadian Act. Try quoting a Canadian law that relates to this and then it will applyjim202 said:Ever heard of the "Telecommunications Act"? Basically intercepting communications that are not intended for you and then divulging this information is a federal offense. Good luck cracking rocks.
the bad thing is that you've stated what you are "privately" doing to a very public audience.Chrome69 said:Guess i will just keep it to a private viewing audience![]()
Uh, no, the Telecommunications Act is a part of Canadian legislation. There may be a Telecom Act in the US also, but there is definitely one in Canada. And as a quick answer, intercepting of pagers is classed as interception of telecommunications, (ie: illegal), due to some arcane rules that the pagers are tied to the terrestrial phone network (so it's the same as intercepting phone calls, another no no).newbie said:Look at his location.

I've never heard of anyone...but I wouldn't want to be the first.slipslope said:has anyone ever been sued for running a scanner feed? there are new ones popping up every day all around the world.
Chrome69 said:well to settle this i have removed the page from my site, thats why i asked here to find out.. As like my live feed if they ask me to stop i wouldn't argue about and would do it.. Too bad as it is really cool how the page looks.....
"Can happen"? Nothings happened, i asked before something does...
Right, but as I pointed out...something DID happen: you decoded the pager data and posted it on a webpage and regardless of how private the page was that was illegal. No charges, no lawsuit or anything like that...and that's good.Chrome69 said:"Can happen"? Nothings happened, i asked before something does...
And the person who brought it up was in New Orleans so which one would he be talking about and familiar with?MatteBlack said:Uh, no, the Telecommunications Act is a part of Canadian legislation. There may be a Telecom Act in the US also, but there is definitely one in Canada.
