Oasis Forms "Lawful Intercept" XML Committee

Posted by Hemos on Sunday January 26, 2003 @11:40PM from the what-the-hobbes-is-that dept.

An anonymous reader writes "Oasis has announced the formation of the Lawful Intercept XML Technical Committee. The announcement refers to it as a "universal global framework for supporting rapid discovery and sharing of suspected criminal and terrorist evidence by law enforcement agencies." It's not really clear if this is supposed to aid in information exchange about suspicious activities/individuals, or 'intercepting' in the sense of eavesdropping, or what exactly."

Faraday canopy kit by Anonymous Coward · 2003-01-27 00:51 · Score: -1, Offtopic

Finally, a restful night. Aah, it feels good to wake up when you got a good night sleep. You too can sleep well now. Buy a faraday canopy kit from this site.

Finally, a "Faraday Cage" type enclosure to completely shield yourself from E-field radiation so you can sleep peacefully at night. No need to worry about hidden power lines emitting electric fields from walls, ceilings, or floors--you're surrounded by protection! This simple canopy, made with an extremely high grade conductive silver/nylon fiber, provides you with an E-field shielded environment so you can rest while minimizing the negative effects E-field can have on brain function, melatonin production, and other body functions. (This fabric also provides >95% shielding of microwaves and radiowaves!)

I appreciate your concern that once they know how to use computers, they can be lightning-fast and eliminate all the paperwork. But, realistically, will this ever happen?. If anything, the introduction of a computer system to any government agency only results in more copies of more pieces of paper flying around, not less. (That's assuming that the computer system is ever put into production; 95% of government-procured systems are either never delivered or by the time they're delivered they've forgotten why they bought them.)
