In the UK we have the same type of problem, this time from my Favorite
Company MI5.

'The UK is leading the world when it comes to high-tech spying on its
citizens'
Please see
http://news6.thdo.bbc.co.uk/hi/english/sci/tech/newsid_762000/762514.stm

Lets face it, internet service providers will be forced to install black
boxes in their 
data centres that connect directly to an MI5 monitoring centre in London.
Now that would 
be nice to hack into.  

More to the point, Who is going to fund this? 'thinking' Oh yes thats why
Petrol in the 
UK has now passed the £1.03 per litre barrier.

I don't understand why the FBI feels that it needs to have a top-secret
black box attached to the ISP's network.  Why not just have the ISP
provide
a copy of all e-mail to or from the specified mailbox?


wiretap is a weapon in the FBI's armoury

in the US, YOU have the right to bear arms

You should demand the constitutional right to wiretap the FBI and CIA and so

on right now.

that will fix things.
