Since there seems to be a great deal of misinformation and paranoia regarding ECHELON and the NSA, I'd like to remind everyone that, besides as Leif mentioned it being old news, there is also a great deal of information about it available. John Young over at Cryptome.org does a great job of accumulating such information. A nice introduction to ECHELON is the report prepared for EPIC, which they decided not to publish as an official EPIC report, but still made available at Cryptome. Get your bed time reading at http://cryptome.org/sigint-hr-dc.htm. Enjoy, Frank -- It is said that the Internet is a public utility. As such, it is best compared to a sewer.
