"The warnings to users of text messaging and pagers is that there should be no expectation of privacy and that everything they are sending will be potentially available to their rivals in real time,"

This is true of all communication written, voice, electronic, smoke signals, etc. that has not been encrypted with a peer reviewed, still believed to be strong encryption system. And sometimes not even then.
