    I will look into this, Thank You, Tradd. I am also using Whats App more as I understand that it's end to end encrypted. Rob

    Signal is considerably better than WhatsApp.

    Yes, however, WhatsApp is very heavily used in MX. So really no way around that if people won’t switch.

    Update on the threats from FB stuff:

    I got a call from Customs today. They said they had gotten several calls from people complaining about me. I’ve worked with that specific Customs contact for ages. When she told me what the complaints were about, we both laughed.

    yikes! I’m glad that went well.

    Who again is complaining about you? I don’t get it. by this, I mean, I’m shocked that customs department has enough people to respond to complaints from random citizens.

    They didn’t like my comments on FB last week about the new 10% China duties. My mentioning the fact that we had one business day to prepare for it didn’t go over well with some Trump unofficial online minions. They actually called Customs to complain about me.

    I know we haven't always seen eye to eye but Tradd.....please be careful. The Nazis pulled such games on Austrian civil servants suspected of being Jewish sympathizers, of course leading to their rapid deaths, right after Anschluss. I get that you think this won't happen here - I don't care to debate - I'm just saying please be careful. History seems to be repeating itself here. Rob

    I’m not risking my livelihood. There’s a reason I recommended that govt surveillance stuff to you. I’ve already done a lot of it. I’ve cleaned the suspects who were involved in this off my FB friends list. Cleared off the posts and other ones as well.

    I’ve worked with this particular civilian employee for years. I think I was only called due to the long term working relationship.
