FBI's Information Spyway

Posted by sengan on Saturday September 05, 1998 @07:02PM from the it's-easy-to-triangulate-in-cyberspace dept.

Kevin writes "ZD-TV is carrying a story about the FBI and their "Information Superspyway", basically it says the telecom industry wants more money to implement the FBI's plan to be able to "wiretap" anyone with the push of a few buttons, as passed by Congress in 1994 in the CALEA. People's privacy begins to diminish little by little. This surveillance net is supposed to be implemented on Oct. 01, 1998 [doubt they make it]."
