Orig Date: Wed, 18 Feb 1998 13:33:14 +0100 Orig Subject: NSA spying in Europe The german online-magaine "Com!" (author: ulrike.duhm@t-online.de) brought an article about the report of the european parliament. Here a summary: The european parliament reported, that the american secret service NSA is monitoring emails, phonecalls and faxes. The informations are forwarded from London and Menwith Hill via satellite to Fort Meade in Maryland. Menwith Hill in Yorkshire, England, is the biggest spy post of the world, that for the NSA collects political, economical, military and private informations from europe and the former Sowjetunion. The 48 year old Glyn Ford, member of the Labour-Party is behind this report. Author of the 100 page document is Steve Wright of the Manchester Omega foundation. The complete report can be found under: www.heise.de/tp/deutsch/inhalt/te/1393/anchor1.html For the first time, the european parliament confirmed the existence of the spy network Echelon, the american part of the spysystem UKUSA. 1948, the USA, England, Canada, Australia and New Zeeland signed a secret contract, the so called "United Kingdom - United States Agreement" (UKUSA). Goal of it is the collective espionage. Via an international ring of agents, the partners are exchanging informations. The german hackers "Chaos Computer Club" (www.ccc.de) thinks, that the european eMail-user is trapped in a net of foreign forces. They are concerned, that the newest versions of the encryption software PGP are in part not compatible with older versions. The result: The exchange between different versions is not possible. For the computer club, that is no coincidence: the hackers from Hamburg, Germany, believe, that a contract between USA and Germany exists, that Germany is not allowed to use a software, that the NSA cannot look in."
