"Law enforcement has more or less universally requested and more or less universally been granted
access to packet switched networks. But because of the difficulty of pulling useful data off any single
wire, law enforcement asked for access to the switch itself. New laws in the US and elsewhere require
equipment manufacturers to make a ground breaking change in the design of their equipment: not
only would law enforcement be granted access, but the equipment would be designed for that access."

Realize how long this sort of stuff has been going on, everyone...
"In general, more is known about the state of government sponsored surveillance than corporate surveillance which, without regulatory oversight, is certainly far more extensive, though usually in the guise of “marketing research” or competitive analysis."
CALEA Carnivore Lecture
This Lecture, as presented at IS2K in Korea, is about CALEA, Carnivore and possible Countermeasures. It presents an overview of the state of surveillance in the world today, introduces some of the many threats to data (some overt, most covert) and highlights the value of security in a very insecure world.
