Correct me if I am wrong but aren't voip phones purely internet based meaning it would be simpler for people to listen in? I know you can still tap a lan line but internet seems like it would be a much more simple task.

Voip isn't necessarily insecure or easy to tap. Additionally if you want to put the work in, it can be encrypted.
Remember, sms messages and email are transmitted in plain text over the wire. Far more easy to intercept those than a voip call imo.

Your texts ALL get read, and it’s quite easy to tell when someone is listening to your phone calls - you’ll typically start hearing an echo.
Remember, “Cell” phones are all “SMART”, too…. Google got into that business for a reason.
Voice over internet protocol.
That is literally what it is, yes.
