520 3 _aDescribes the extent of communications intelligence (COMINT) surveillance especially that carried out by the UKUSA ECHELON system, the principle targets, and the methods of operation. Provides examples of situations in which the USA is said to have used such surveillance for economic advantage. Also identifies a previously secret organisation ILETS (International Law Enforcement Telecommunications Seminar). The technical annexe explains the basics of digital broadband communication, the equipment and software available to access it, the limitations of speech recognition systems as opposed to those that can identify a speaker, and in-built backdoors in common software such as Lotus Notes that enable the USA to read encrypted messages.
