Watters says it is tied into the local telephone company circuits, which are interconnected with the national microwave telephone system owned by AT&T. Other specialists testified to the same thing: purely domestic intercepts. P223: "Technical know-how" for microwave communications intercept was aided by William Baker, head of AT&T's Bell Laboratories and at the same time an important member of the very secret NSA Scientific Advisory Board. After all, it was Bell Labs under Baker that, to a great extent, developed and perfected the very system that the NSA hoped to penetrate. [ "The Rise of the Computer State", David Burnham, 1984, ISBN 0-394-72375-9 "A Chilling Account of the Computer's Threat to Society" FYI note: this document's opening quote is from this book. P122: For the last three decades the NSA has been a frequent and secret participant in regulatory matters before the Federal Communications Commission, where important decisions are made that directly affect the structure of the telephone company, the use of radio airwaves and the operation of communication satellites. ] P317: 1962. Now, for the first time, NSA had begun turning its massive ear inward toward its own citizens. With no laws or legislative charter to block its path, the ear continued to turn. P319: The Secret Service, the CIA, the FBI and the DIA submitted entries for the NSA's watch list. The names on the various watch lists ranged from members of radical political groups to celebrities to ordinary citizens involved in protest against their government. Included were such well-known figures as Jane Fonda, Joan Baez, Dr. Benjamin Spock, Dr. Martin Luther King Jr., the Reverand Ralph Abernathy, Black Panther leader Eldridge Cleaver, and Chicago Seven defendants Abbie Hoffman and David T. Dellinger. A frightening side effect of the watch l

From: Pubkeybreaker on 18 Apr 2008 22:36 the large GCSB computer database of intercept from the New Zealand stations and overseas agencies. [ I interrupt this book excerpt to bring you retrieval results for "BRS Search" from the www.altavista.digital.com search engine: BRS/Search is designed to manage large collections of unstructured information, allowing multiple users to quickly and efficiently search, retrieve and analyze stored documents simply by entering a word, concept, phrase, or combination of phrases, in any length. The product offers the most powerful indexing structure available today, with users able to pinpoint critical information in seconds, even across millions of documents in numerous databases. Hmmm. Sounds like the search engine I just used. You give the search engine keywords to search for, and can specify exclusion logic keywords. e.g. "digital AND NOT watch" ] Before anything goes into the database, the actual searching and selection of intercepted messages has already occurred - in the Dictionary computers at the New Zealand and overseas stations. This is an enormous mass of material - literally all the business, government and personal messages that the station catches. The computers automatically search through everything as it arrives at the station. This is the work of the Dictionary program. It reads every word and number in every single incoming message and picks out all the ones containing target keywords and numbers. Thousands of simultaneous messages are read in 'real time' as they pour into the station, hour after hour, day after day, as the computer finds intelligence needles in the telecommunications haystack. Telephone calls containing keywords are automatically extracted from the masses of other calls and digitally recorded to be listened to by analysts back in the agency headquarters.
