* The NSA grew out of the post war "Signals Intelligence" section of the

* America, and indeed most other countries, in that there are NO specified
* or defined limits to its powers.

* The NSA can (and does) do just about whatever it wants, whenever, and

* Not limited by any law, and answerable only to the U.S. National Security
* Council through COMSEC, the NSA now controls an information and

Of course it is.

out packaging mechanisms here at Jefferies. I really miss
all the infrastructure mechanisms I took for granted at Salomon.
********** end excerpt from 'Corruption at Salomon Brothers' **********
That document was labelled as Salomon proprietary on each page.
The FBI got search warrants and went into Jefferies and took control of
a couple systems, and went home with the Ex-Salomon person and searched
there and took his computer systems. [The case is still pending @6/97]
The code is simple. It's choosing the keyword filtration sequence that's
tricky. I figured out how to determine it in an almost systemic way. Oddly
enough, I needed no keywords for specifically seeking out source code.
So, keyword monitoring is highly effective, I could even cover three feeds,
and, sigh, I should mention that it took well less than 5000 lines of
programming source code for me to implement it.
And I generated two FBI cases.
[
Think of what could happen should the FBI get its implementation of
the CALEA bill. They could go nuts, and say "see, that proves we need
to monitor thousands of phone calls simultaneously".
And into the abyss we go.
There would be no place to hide from the government,
even for lawful peaceful political protest.
Domestic ECHELON must be physically disabled.

There's more.

In the complaint, I breathlessly described being able to see more than just
dry security incidents. The point was germane to my analysis that one of the
reasons the corrupt member of Salomon's Internal Audit department could
seemingly not be punished by anyone was that his job as financial traffic
analysis person made him privy to the most damaging unreported SEC violations
that anyone at Salomon

* All cryptography that cannot meet this standard should be prohibited.
