Reevaluate the value of the target.

I don't know what government is doing snooping on facebook messenger. I would be blindsided if real crime was happening that way.



Real crime happens on SMS all the time. Why wouldn’t it happen on Facebook messenger which is one of the most popular SMS replacement apps?


BBM was very popular for illicit purposes when it was in its heyday at RIM.

People moved onto other messengers like WhatsApp for those purposes.

Heck people use snapchat expiring messages to relay info on illicit activities.

It is not farfetched at all people are using FB messenger, signal, anything for that purpose.
