No longer, if it ever was. It's a crime, as evidenced by the wireless
scandal a few years back when some Democrat partisan intercepted
communications of Republican leadership in Florida, then talked. The
simple act of interception was illegal.
Next time, before disagreeing with someone:
a) Please read what he actually wrote, and
