IP: ISPI Clips 4.73: Europeans Bristle Over NSA's ECHELON-So Should You

From: "ama-gi ISPI" <offshore(a)email.msn.com> Subject: IP: ISPI Clips 4.73: Europeans Bristle Over NSA's ECHELON-So Should You Date: Fri, 25 Sep 1998 01:12:58 -0700 To: <Undisclosed.Recipients(a)majordomo.pobox.com> ISPI Clips 4.73: Europeans Bristle Over NSA's ECHELON-So Should You News & Info from the Institute for the Study of Privacy Issues (ISPI) Friday September 24, 1998 ISPI4Privacy(a)ama-gi.com ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ This From: The Baltimore Sun, September 19, 1998 http://www.sunspot.net NSA listening practices called European `threat' European Parliament report accuses agency of widespread spying http://www.sunspot.net/cgi-bin/editorial/story.cgi?storyid=900000194001 By Neal Thompson Sun Staff The National Security Agency has incurred the wrath of some U.S. allies and triggered debate about increased global eavesdropping, thanks to a new report that accuses the agency of spying on European citizens and companies. With the help of a listening post in the moors of northern England, NSA for nearly a decade has been snatching Europe's electronic communications signals, according to a report for the European Parliament. "Within Europe, all e-mail, telephone and fax communications are routinely intercepted by the United States National Security Agency, transferring all target information to Fort Meade," said the report. `Powerful threat' It warned that the NSA's tactics represent a "powerful threat to civil liberties in Europe" at a time when more communication -- and commerce -- is conducted electronically. A preliminary version of the report circulated overseas in recent months, touching off heated debate, with front-page stories in Italy, France, Scotland, England, Belgium and even Russia. The NSA won't discuss the report or even admit that the listening post exists. But this week, two days of debate in the European Parliament continued the extraordinary public disclosure of comprehensive post-Cold War spying by the agency. On Wednesday, the Parliament passed a resolution seeking more accountability from such eavesdropping arrangements and more assurances that they won't be misused. "We want to make sure that somebody's watching them," said Glyn Ford, a British member of the European Parliament, the legislative body for the 15-member European Union. Observers say this was the first time a governmental body has described in detail -- and then criticized -- the NSA's tactics. "The cat's well and true out of the bag," said Simon Davies, director of the London-based watchdog group Privacy International. "I would argue that we have made the grandest step in 50 years toward accountability of such national security transparencies." The report describes a sophisticated program called Echelon, which the NSA established in conjunction with British intelligence agencies. The program includes a listening post in Menwith Hill, in Yorkshire, whose satellite dishes soak up the satellite and microwave transmissions carrying Europe's telephone conversations, faxes and e-mail. Unlike Cold War spying aimed at the military, Echelon is a global electronic surveillance system that targets individuals, businesses, governments and organizations, the report says. The U.S. shares the information with Britain, Canada, Australia and New Zealand as part of an intelligence-sharing agreement called UKUSA. Each nation has its own set of key words, so it can seek information on specific issues, the report states. Europe is but a fraction of Echelon's target area -- and the Menwith Hill post is one of at least 10 around the world, the report adds. "One reason its a bigger deal over there than it is over here [in the U.S.] is because the SIGINT [signals intelligence] systems are over their heads and not our heads," said Jeffrey Richelson, an analyst with the National Security Archives, a U.S. group seeking to declassify intelligence related documents. Echelon repercussions But the disclosure of Echelon could soon resonate across the Atlantic after the European Parliament action. Furthermore, it could complicate current negotiations between the U.S. and the European Union over encryption programs that scramble or encode computer information, said Parliament member Ford. The U.S. has been lobbying for back-door access to such codes for security reasons. --------------------------------NOTICE:------------------------------ ISPI Clips are news & opinion articles on privacy issues from all points of view; they are clipped from local, national and international newspapers, journals and magazines, etc. Inclusion as an ISPI Clip does not necessarily reflect an endorsement of the content or opinion by ISPI.

There is a concept cypherpunks have called "Blacknet", which is an organisation that sells profiles of prospective employees based on their public comments on the Internet. This allows employers to filter out undesirables who might or might not have outgrown their rebellious youth. (You can never be too safe!) Now, there are laws making discrimination illegal. But it's hard to *prove* that an employer based its decision on BlackNet files, isn't it.... The cypherpunk philosophy is to rely on technology to solve the problem, rather than rely on the government (or anyone else). Cypherpunks write code. -- an anonymous aol32 user.

Re: GPL & commercial software, the critical distinction (fwd)

Forwarded message: > Date: Tue, 29 Sep 1998 00:45:55 +0100 > From: Adam Back <aba(a)dcs.ex.ac.uk> > Subject: Re: GPL & commercial software, the critical distinction > There are two distinct licenses promoted by the FSF. They are the GNU > GPL (General Public License) and the GNU LGPL (Library General Public > License). > > As you suggest the LGPL is usuable. I'm suggesting both are usable for commercial code development, just don't put GPL'ed source code in your source code. There is NO limitation of the GPL or the LGPL that prevents a commercial product from making calls into the GPL'ed library. The problem with your interpretation is that in a sense you want your cake and eat it too. In short you want to be able to use somebody elses code in your product without their having a say in how their code is used or receiving a cut of the profits. The GPL/LGPL is specificaly designed to prevent this. If you use their code (not the binaries, though you will be required to provide source to those binaries if you distribute it with your product though this won't include the binaries to your commercial product) then you must release your code - an extension of derivation. If you desire to produce commercial secure-source code compatible with a GPL license then simply don't ship *any* GPL with your product and use no GPL source or LGPL'ed library in source form in that product. The point to the L/GPL is not to prevent commercial code development but rather to prevent somebody from taking a library some programmer written and released for non-commercial (a distinction not permited under public domain) use while retaining control over that source so that if somebody, like yourself, bops along and decides they can make a million with it the original programmer gets a cut or you loose your million. How does the original programmer get a cut? Simple, the commercial entity contacts the programmer and licenses a non-GPL'ed version of the library. Bottem line, don't steal other peoples code to make money without paying them for their effort. It's that simple. ____________________________________________________________________ The seeker is a finder. Ancient Persian Proverb The Armadillo Group ,::////;::-.

complex mathematical formulae

17 Dec '03

I hope http://www.jya.com/itl-news.htm enjoys black and white. "complex mathematical formulae" aka pseduomathematics Then, in late 1942, the Royal Navy switched codes to the one-time pad system. The Nazi tap was lost forever because the pad system is unbreakable in both theory as well as practice. U-boats could no longer ambush helpless ships like wolves on sheep. Convoy after convoy arrived safe and intact, protected in the armor of an unbreakable code system. The U-boats had to change tactics. http://www.us.net/softwar/ Germany used the enigma algorithm and machine. Japan used the purple algorithm. And look what happened to them!
