Found this on another mailing list. EXPOSING THE GLOBAL SURVEILLANCE SYSTEM by Nicky Hager IN THE LATE 1980S, IN A DECISION IT PROBABLY REGRETS, THE US PROMPTED NEW ZEALAND TO JOIN A NEW AND HIGHLY SECRET GLOBAL INTELLIGENCE SYSTEM. HAGER'S INVESTIGATION INTO IT AND HIS DISCOVERY OF THE ECHELON DICTIONARY HAS REVEALED ONE OF THE WORLD'S BIGGEST, MOST CLOSELY HELD INTELLIGENCE PROJECTS. THE SYSTEM ALLOWS SPY AGENCIES TO MONITOR MOST OF THE WORLD'S TELEPHONE, E-MAIL, AND TELEX COMMUNICATIONS.
Note that John Judge, political/conspiracy researcher, has described much or most of this material in detail in his papers and speeches, several years ago. The Opal File, also several years old, details the economic takeover of New Zealand area by various parties, along with the installment of satellites by Hughes Corp., ostensibly to search for oil and all that stuff. I don't have any really current Judge material, but if he's still alive, he's probably researching the use of non-Hertzian/directed/pulsed energy formats, or even cryptography of a fundamentally different nature than what is commonly discussed here.
