This is absolutely mind blowing there are this many comments believing this woman is an actual retired FBI agent. Let-s start with her name, the most obvious, -Reese- and -glover- don-t seem like fake names at all. she clearly hasn-t a clue what-s she-s talking about in this entire film. Not one piece of information she gives out. I used to really enjoy these types of videos until I watched this one and realized no one on these videos is actually a professional at all.

Using kids for Surveillance like that. Okay, they're kids, so how much do you want to risk them? That being said, the mark has to be really paranoid to suspect that kid writing in a newspaper. If an adult male did that on the street, it would be a lot more suspicious, but there's a reason why criminal organizations use kids as runners. They often get in under your radar.

I-d love to see a pro breakdown of the bugging episode of The Sopranos (S. 3, ep. 1. Most of the episode focuses on the procedures the FBI follows in getting legal permission, surveilling the Soprano family, and sneaking into the house to hide a microphone. It would be cool to see how much the show got right about real-world bugging/surveillance.

I'm guessing Ms. Reese did undercover as a minor, because even now there's no way anyone would look at her and think she'd been working for 34 years.
Very interesting insight into surveillance in real life. I suspect if Hollywood portrayed everything 100% accurately, though, it wouldn't be nearly as much fun to watch.

10: 41 Couldn't someone just talk about something mundane for a few minutes, THEN start talking about offing the local cafe-owner because he didn't pay his -protection fee- in time, or similar?
Fool the wiretapper.

-The Sopranos scene: agent in the van keeps pulling a radio to his face and fills the dash with empty containers. That has to appear suspicious. Repair vans normally have filled writing pads on the dash. -

-Robert DeNiro's character was talking about Minimization. You have to be very very careful, and very very intentional, when you're doing a wiretap. -
Uhh, the NSA would like to have a word with you.

When will Wired make a video for a Teacher Breakdown? No love for the teaching profession? Teachers can't be experts?
I went ahead and made my own video because they haven't yet.

Her necklace is carrying a spy cam, audio recorder, cyanide capsule, transmitter, GPS, lock pick, USB drive and a laser gun. Possibly a neuralyzer too.
