http://www.foxnews.com/js_index.sml?content=/news/wires2/ Mexican wiretapping scandal places political reforms in doubt March 26, 1998 By Mark Stevenson, Associated Press MEXICO CITY (AP) When members of an opposition party burst into a secret government wiretapping station this month, they did more than reveal a political scandal: They exposed some of the deepest secrets of common citizens in the coastal city of Campeche. The wiretapping, apparently orchestrated by the state government to get information on opposition groups, has spawned a scandal that reaches into at least four other states. In most cases, opposition politicians were the targets. But nowhere has the damage been as great as in Campeche, where a powerful eavesdropping system set up in a private home had the capacity to tap virtually all phones in the southern city of 200,000 people and record some of their darkest lies and infidelities. "We stood there in shock, in rage, impotence, as we heard recordings and read transcripts of our telephone conversations,'' said Layda Sansores, a senator for the leftist opposition Democratic Revolution Party who discovered the surveillance center on a tip. "There are difficult moments over the course of seven years, things you don't want to remember.'' "We heard a tape of one telephone call in which a man said he was with another man's wife. The wife was there in the room with us, listening,'' Sansores said at a news conference Wednesday. A local journalist present during the March 3 raid on the surveillance center was quoted in one wiretap transcript as denying accusations of rape, noting he `just had fun with' an unidentified woman. "We haven't seen him in public since,'' Sansores said. The taping in the city on the Gulf of Mexico, which used sophisticated computer equipment supplied by an Israeli firm, apparently began in 1991. Three men caught operating the bank of computers and phone switches have been arrested and charged with espionage and criminal association. Two had worked at some point for state police. "We are a small family in Campeche, and this hurts our very fabric,'' Sansores said. Documents uncovered by Sansores in the tiny, computerized wiretapping center including dozens of tapes and transcripts of her own conversations "and those of everyone around me, nieces, sisters, my parents'' suggest the eavesdropping was paid for by the Campeche state government. The current government, which took office in late 1997, has blamed the wiretapping on a previous state governor and said the current governor didn't know about it. Experts and politicians disagree on whether Mexico is experiencing a surge in wiretappings and surveillance, at a time when opposition groups are threatening the ruling Institutional Revolutionary Party's 69-year uninterrupted grip on power. Sansores claims that there are up to 22 of the eavesdropping stations around the country, and mentioned four other states where her supporters or party colleagues believe they have evidence of such surveillance. On March 18, authorities seized a network of phone-tapping equipment and secret cameras in Monterrey that reportedly had been rented by politicians and businessmen in the northern city. Several weeks earlier, a top official in the Mexico City government and also from the Democratic Revolution Party the first opposition party ever to govern the capital said she found two tiny surveillance cameras in her office. "There is a new way of doing things when a new group comes to power,'' said Joel Estudillo, an analyst at the Mexican Institute of Political Studies. "Politicians say, `We have to find out what these people have done''' in the past. In a closed political circle like that which has dominated Mexico for most of the century, secrets like past corruption are often known but seldom publicized until a grudge or a competition makes such information a valuable weapon, Estudillo said. "Those kinds of understandings and internal arrangements have so far prevented espionage from becoming a big problem.'' ------------------------------------------------------------ David Honig Orbit Technology honig(a)otc.net Intaanetto Jigyoubu Maybe them boys in Jonesboro were trying out for Lon Horiuchi's job.

Junger v. USA Notice
by John Young 17 Dec '03

17 Dec '03

To: pr_list4(a)samsara.LAW.CWRU.Edu Subject: Press Release Date: Thu, 26 Mar 1998 15:37:38 -0500 From: "Peter D. Junger" <junger(a)samsara.LAW.CWRU.Edu> Press Release New Judge to Decide Whether Export Restrictions on Software Violate Constitutional Guarantees of Freedom of Speech and of the Press Reply Briefs in Junger v. Daley Available on World Wide Web Government Argues that Much Software is Harmful ---------------------------------------------------------------- Cleveland, Ohio, Tuesday, March 26, 1998 For Immediate Release For More Information Contact: Peter D. Junger (216) 368-2535 <junger(a)samsara.law.cwru.edu> Gino Scarselli (216) 291-8601 <gscarsel(a)mail.multiverse.com> Or see URL: http://samsara.law.cwru.edu/comp_law/jvc/ To be added to, or removed from, the list of those who were sent this press release, please send e-mail to <lawsuit(a)upaya.multiverse.com>. _________________________________________________________________ Cleveland, Ohio, March 26 -- A status conference in the case of Junger v. Daley, the suit in which a law professor at Case Western Reserve University in Cleveland, Ohio seeks to enjoin the enforcement by the United States Department of Commerce of the export regulations on encryption software, will be held Friday, March 27, at 10:00 a.m. in the chambers of Federal District Judge James S. Gwin in the federal courthouse in Akron, Ohio. The case turns on the issue of whether the publication in electronic form of encryption software---software that is used to preserve the privacy of electronic communications and data stored on a computer---is entitled to protection under the First Amendment to the United States Constitution. Judge Gwin, a recent appointee to the federal bench who previously served on the Ohio Court of Common Pleas, has replaced Judge Donald C. Nugent as the judge responsible for the litigation. The plaintiff, Professor Peter Junger, who teaches a course in Computing and the Law and who wishes to publish his class materials containing some encryption programs on his World Wide Web server, seeks an injunction against the enforcement by the defendant, Commerce Secretary Daley, of the export regulations promulgated the Department of Commerce that require anyone who wishes to publish encryption software of the Internet or on the World Wide Web to first obtain a license from the Bureau of Export Administration. Both sides have filed for summary judgment. Junger argues that the freedoms of speech and of the press that are secured by the First Amendment protect the writing and publication of computer programs. The government, on the other hand, argues that computer programs are not entitled to the protection of the First Amendment because they are ``functional''. Each side has filed a brief in support of its motion for summary judgment. These briefs and the complaint and motions for summary judgment are available at <http://www.jya.com/pdj.htm> and <http://samsara.law.cwru.edu/comp_law/jvd/>. In addition both sides have filed reply briefs that are now available at: <http://www.jya.com/pdj6.htm> <http://www.jya.com/pdj7.htm> In his reply brief the plaintiff's lawyers argue: ``Making software available on the Internet and the World Wide Web is publication of that software, and publication in that medium is entitled to the unqualified protection of the First Amendment.'' The government responds to this argument in its reply brief by claiming that software is a ``functional item'' and thus not entitled to protection as speech. In furtherance of this claim it points out, ``Much software ... is designed to cause substantial harm,'' and that ``software can be used to invade privacy, commit fraud, and substantially disrupt and endanger people's lives.'' ``That is rather a perverse argument,'' says Junger, ``considering that encryption software is used to protect against exactly the harms that the government lists and that there is no law against the use of encryption software, while, of course, there are laws against invading privacy, committing fraud, and substantially disrupting and endangering people's lives. It is clear that the government does not claim just the right to regulate the writing and publication of encryption software. It claims the right to forbid the writing and publication of any type of computer program whatsoever without being in any way restricted by the First Amendment. There are, of course, some types of speech, like obscenity, that the courts have held are not entitled to the protection of the First Amendment, but no court has ever subscribed to the government's remarkable theory that the First Amendment does not protect functional speech.'' ``My case,'' says Junger, ``is not just about the constitutionality of the regulations forbidding the export of encryption software, though that is an extremely important issue. The real issue is whether the First Amendment protects the writing and publication of any type of computer program.'' -30-

anti-snoop RF detector
by Dave Del Torto 17 Dec '03

17 Dec '03

Anyone have any info on this "Series Technology" company? dave ................................. cut here ................................. [ WhiteBoard News Excerpt: Wed 18 March 1998 ] Taipei, Taiwan: Taiwan's high-tech "peeping Toms" may have met their match in the form of a pocket-sized device designed to detect pornographers' hidden cameras. The "Discovery I" device, which resembles a pager, detects radio waves emitted by the wireless remote-control cameras that criminal groups have installed some hotel rooms, toilets and department store fitting rooms to spy on unsuspecting patrons. Pictures taken by such cameras of couples having sex or women trying on garments are widely available in Taiwan's underground pornography market. "Hopefully this device can give people more assurance when they are in public establishments," said a representative for Series Technology, which launched the detector Tuesday. Several cases have come to light in Taiwan in recent weeks in which people have bought pornographic videotapes, only to discover themselves as the featured attraction. Police are cracking down on the illegal practice, using far more sophisticated scanners, and have made numerous arrests.

Fwd: 10 Laws the Net Needs - Article/Survey
by Bill Stewart 17 Dec '03

17 Dec '03

Sigh. Another control freak concerned about the anarchy of the Net is doing a survey. Voting is still open, and I'd encourage you to go see the mix of opinions of the 8000 or so current voters and add your own. ------- Forwarded Message Follows ------- From: http://www.cnet.com/Content/Features/Dlife/Laws10/index.html 10 Laws the Net Needs CNet Features By Susan Stellin (3/23/98) When the U.S. Congress passed the Communications Decency Act in 1995, Net activists staged a collective revolt. Protestors set up anti-CDA Web pages, launched campaigns to stop Net censorship, and hit the streets to voice their opposition. When the Supreme Court struck down the CDA, many online activists breathed a sigh of relief. But as it turns out, that law was just a preview of things to come. This year, there are more than 50 bills before Congress that propose some kind of Internet regulation. And policymakers from China to the European Union have been equally busy. Like it or not, this genie's been let out of the bottle; Net laws are on the way. So as the saying goes, if you can't beat 'em, join 'em. We've taken the lead on this one and drafted ten of our own Internet laws: proposals dealing with real issues like the proliferation of spam, the invasion of online privacy, and yes, the too-easy access to pornography. Some of our ideas match bills Congress is already considering; others address problems that Washington hasn't thought of yet. Brazen? You bet. In fact, not everyone at CNET agrees with all of these proposals--and you may not either. So we've decided to put them up for a vote. We've paired each law with an electronic ballot box. So exercise your (virtual) right to vote, and let us know how on-track--or off-base--our ideas are. The polls are open... Susan Stellin is an executive editor at CNET.
