Just saying, it is probably way easier for NSA spying software to scan text messages for suspicious content than phone calls. Oh you think they aren't scanning? Well, they are.

Curious, are BlackBerry Messager consider the same as IM?

What about PIN on the BlackBerry? Are they safe? Does the BlackBerry server keep them and can lawyers or courts collect them?

I work with a telco in data mining and there is no one keeping these for more than 2 days and they are not retrievable outside the sms center cache, you can't get the data inside, it is simply not reasonable to store so much data on a physical disk.

I think something with privacy laws (and the amount of data these things fill up) are the reasons why the cell phone carriers don't keep this information...cached for two days sounds about right too...

@One2ManyCords:

Yes, there is something missing here. Kilpatrick's text messages were quite old and still somebody somehow retrieved them (if I remember correctly).

Good to know. Now if only there was a text message recall feature with regards to careless SMS syndrome.

Feel free to replace careless with drunken.

Try as I may, I still can't find any squirrels pooping on bananas. Thankfully, however, I've learned the truth about whether squirrels poop at all. I love you Gizmodo.

And here I thought the major telecoms were all Bush hugging, wiretap monkeys. Look how easy they're making it for terrorists to LOL at our female population's lack of shame.

@dustinwwhite: That's why everybody texts sensitive information rather than calling on potentially illegal activities.
