Can I listen to encrypted communications with a scanner?

Asked a year ago
No, it is not possible to listen to encrypted communications with a scanner. Encryption is a security measure used to protect sensitive information from unauthorized access. Encrypted communications are designed to be decoded only by authorized recipients who possess the necessary decryption keys. Scanners, on the other hand, can only pick up and decode unencrypted and non-proprietary radio frequencies. They lack the capability to decipher encrypted signals. Listening to encrypted communications without authorization is illegal and violates privacy laws. It is important to respect and adhere to these laws to maintain the integrity of secure communication systems.
