The air waves are free.  In the USA it is always legal to
receive a broadcast transmission, though it is not always legal
to retransmit it.  Be thankful for this; were it not so there
could be laws restricting the sale of radio transceivers and
laws restricting reception of Radio Moscow.  A plaintext
transmission over telephone circuits is never completely secure
anyway -- much telephony uses microwave transmission.

Draw your own morals.
