This is a shortened version of an ATPC update over twice as long. The full report was offered for a while by the Dutch newspaper NRC Handelsblad but has since been replaced by the shorter version. Why only the short version is being offered is not clear -- it addresses only the surveillance part of the full report, ECHELON and the FBI/EU wiretapping deal. The report is controversial within EuroParl and the European Commission and there may have been a political decision to focus on its most contentious aspects. Other sections update the full range of technologies for political control of the original report published in January 1998. (Note that EuroParl has still not made the orginal report available online.) The NRC Handelsblad reporter who got the full report from the author, the Omega Foundation, sent us a copy available at: http://jya.com/stoa-atpc-so.htm (101K)
