o the charges against MoD marked the first use of wiretaps to record both conversations and datacomm by accused hackers. This I find quite interesting... As a guess, if I were to attempt such monitoring, I would start with a pair of off-the-shelf modems, but I don't know the details of modern compression (v.42) or wire encodings to know how easy that would be to make work... Anyone have more details on how the tap was accomplished?
