We offer an HTML version of the Carnivore technical
review report released yesterday by DoJ (without appendices):
http://cryptome.org/carnivore.rev.htm (164KB text, 8 images)
The original PDF report is 9.4MB, 121 pages.
One notable conclusion about Carnivore's shortcomings
and why its code should not be released to the public:
Carnivore can be countered with simple, public-domain
encryption.
But it can snarf everything done by a targeted Web user,
e-mail, FTP, HTTP, and you name it.
