b. False

Explanation:The Electronic Communications Privacy Act ("ECPA") was passed in 1986 to expand and revise federal wiretapping and electronic eavesdropping provisions. It was enacted to create promote " the privacy expectations of citizens and the legitimate needs of law enforcement." Congress also sought to support the creation of new technologies by assuring consumers that their personal information would remain safe.

ECPA included amendments to the Wiretap Act, created the Stored Communications Act, and created the Pen Register Act. The Wiretap Act concerns interception of electronic and wire communications, which include "any aural transfer made in whole or in part through the use of facilities for the transmission of communications by the aid of wire, cable, or other like connection.” An oral communication is "any oral communication uttered by a person exhibiting an expectation that such communication is not subject to interception under circumstances justifying such expectation"; this constitutes any oral conversation in person where there is the expectation no third party is listening.

It protects the citizens against the government from having access to people's communications electronically unless they are authorized or the person involved gives his or her consent. Although the act was later amended so as to encompass more content concerning electronic communication such as oral and wire Communication.

The Electronic Communications Privacy Act (ECPA) can be applied to communications made through social media because in social media data are stored and are being transfered and this covers the reason the act was enacted in the first place.
