NSA surveillance: Merkel's phone may have been monitored 'for over 10 years' (Sunday 27 October 2013) https://www.theguardian.com/wo...
If the best in Germany cant even keep one phone safe, the only phone they really had to keep safe, something is very lacking.
France had its entire diplomatic communications network full reconstructed by the US and UK into the 1950's after failing to protect its FMT diplomatic code and later code use.

If any nation had the skills, they would be in the network, collecting the data and out without a trace long term. But we are to understand that they only had the skills to get in, stay in undetected, collect a lot of data in plain text, get the data out. Then totally fail with logs and methods left all over to find and get discovered quickly? The press is then told of such methods very early in the investigation, showing what was discovered?
The ability to not be have the method discovered later was then a skill set that was so totally lacking?
Lots of easy to understand logs to read all over the network for the private sector and investigators to comment on to the press at the very start of their investigations?
What nation with the advanced skill set to get in would allow its tools to be discovered by letting them just drop into the hands of the first investigators to have a look around?
Any further attempts could then be blocked and undetected access would be lost..
US politics has a long history of the insider walking out with bulk data and handing it to the press for full publication and public comment.
The US even has legal support for and protection for such exposure of material that has is vital for the wider public to understand and comment on.

NIGHTWATCH, RAGEMASTER, and SURLYSPAWN
Build more dams in Scotland? Scotland setting its own energy policy could see English power been fully imported at any price Scotland can set. Buy German, French and risk renting parts and support via the EU its massive bureaucracy? A made in the USA nuclear turn key multi national with its hidden parts supply chain going back to China? Ask the US if the UK is allowed to open talks with Russia?
Where and what to build has become vital to the interests of England. If its not built in England now with some controls over prices, who could control setting the full price later?
In the past it was easy to set a cheaper energy policy, e.g. 1953 Iranian coup or just create another oil rich British protectorate and set a low price...
The pay back for political leaders is in party political patronage.
Later full access to China is the lure held in front of any nation during such negotiations going back over decades.
Political leaders see access to China for their friends in big business as their constituents not any price issues raised by voters.
China wants to fully secure global profits and enjoy a constant flow of cash from as many different nations energy sectors as it is allowed to buy into.
Nuclear needs experts to design, build, experts to keep the site maintained and then more experts to help with decommissioning. A wonderful way to lock in and set profits over the years of a project. The host nation just has to keep buying spare parts and passing on costs to its citizens.
The UK should have been the exporter of such skills but like ship building, reactor vessel welding is a skill once lost that only a few nations can sell on the international market today.
A car analogy:
In the Eastern states you can only rent a car or small truck from one company and have to pay a toll on their network of roads.
You can rent any sized car or truck but only from the one company and you have to stay on their toll roads.
The company toll roads are planned to be fully paved in the fly over states over the next few decades.
If you move to the Western states you have the freedom to rent from just one different company and drive on their toll roads.
Freedom of choice is in the option to ride a bike, take a taxi to the airport, sail, write a letter or walk. Political leaders like to talk of the ever expanding canal system, sneakers and innovative new all American designed sidecars.
No community or local gov is allowed to buy asphalt or tender for light rail for any reason.
What are the options? A mandated "gov inside" backdoor on every phone able to be used to connect to any US network?
A state and federal designed in PRISM like NSA and GCHQ decryption network set into every hardware company with access by any state task force with federal funding by default?
Microsoft handed the NSA access to encrypted messages (12 July 2013) https://www.theguardian.com/wo...
"Material collected through Prism is routinely shared with the FBI and CIA, with one NSA document describing the program as a "team sport"."
Re "That backdoor game is an odd one: The only winning move is not to play it."
What would a backdoor given to the gov look like?
Greek wiretapping case 2004–05 https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/...–05
"involved the illegal tapping of more than 100 mobile phones"... "belonging mostly to members of the Greek government and top-ranking civil servants"
SISMI-Telecom scandal https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/...
"enter the Telecom system and implement wiretaps without leaving a trace"... "including politicians, magistrates, football players and referees had been placed under illegal surveillance""
Once any gov keys get copied, kept by, sold, offered to the media by ex staff, former staff, anyone can have access or even send data, new upgrades back down to any device:)
The news about another nation having the skills to get into a computer network, stay undetected, able to remove bulk plain text data but then have details about methods used got discovered was strange.
Why would such a method be caught now with a such weak tool set when every other part of the data extraction was undiscoverable?
The early hint to that was it was not another nation: http://edition.cnn.com/2016/07...
""Perhaps one day the source or sources will step forward and that might be an interesting moment some people may have egg on their faces."
This seems more like a classic Watergate https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/... insider walk out than any nation with amazing skills to get into a network that then lacked any ability cover its way out of a US network.

With the new standards and todays units, less of that older network change is needed or change or drop is detected on entry to an area under total voice, data collection.
Upgrades can even be pushed down into a users network to alter that device or carry back to another more secure computer later.
Re Why are these legal at all?
It worked in other parts of the world for contractors and the mil, spy agencies. Its now so cheap that more govs around the world can be sold the same tech on a police budget per case. Collect it all is now cheaper than working on a complex logging system per person. The other risk is that the information created by requesting a number or user be set for investigation at a court or telco level is sold or been watched for.
With bulk collection, no outside group, court or telco worker is aware of who is of interest to police or why an area is been considered for collection..
Too many telco staff and court staff have to set numbers for collection. Cults, other nations, spies are a risk. Citizens willing to help other nations, criminal networks, staff with cash flow issues then act as long term helpers within the court or telco systems and get insider help as police investigations request technical help. An easy escape or time to clean up and alter the course of discovery can result.
Canada been a 5 eye nation also has a lot of ex staff and former mil/gov staff with the skill sets to find out if a person, their cell phone numbers or network is subject to any type of court order or long term logging.
Police have seen years of work and over time result in easy, early escapes after going to court staff or getting help from teams of telco experts.
Parallel construction kept within a smaller police unit solves a lot of ways information can be sold or given to people of interest.
Re 'You don't have to be a rocket scientist to calculate that the system didn't have the capacity to deal with this spike in traffic."
Expert US firms exist that can plan for millions of people clicking and entering small amounts of text on an encrypted web site over a few hours. They do it well and their clients globally have no issues...
Buy bandwidth, talk with telcos, ensure national backhaul is ready, rent, scale and test. Why was an expected and totally captive user count so to understand and plan for?
This was not some random on the day global event or unexpected spike in users numbers. The population of computer users was very well understood, the data size and flow was set and very well understood. Most nations do have a grasp of how many homes have internet, use wireless, adsl, optical or other networks... Been a 5 eye nation, ongoing telco capacity should be the one task thats with in the grasp of experts at the national level over the decades.
Re "... calculate that the system didn't have the capacity"
What was the clog? A big computer network could just not keep up with the only task it was designed for and had some time to be fully tested for?
Or a big 3rd party pipe provider was just not tested or ready?
What is really needed to bid for the widest amount of private sector and federal contracts?
A legal team, people with the correct security paper work to fill out standards forms? People who can help with the local community of political leaders and their election funding needs..
That is the new limit of the really well paying jobs. Everything else can be legally and fully outsourced, covered by a few local security clearances and full party political protection.
The need for a vast pool of skilled local workers, each with their own security clearances is over. As along as the correct forms are lodged by the right US teams its all legal.
Bid on a few 100k, a million or billions worth of contracts over decades, its all going to be pure profit due to much lower wage costs.
Academic social advancement vs any real ability to rank merit is a huge risk too.
Offering a job locally might expose a company to obligations to hire based on considerations other than skill. Presenting the legal need to always hire globally reduces the risk of been required to hire locally.
The face alterations will only pass until systems catch up with height, gait or can search deeper into other live databases.
Eg the person is logged at work in another state as their gov, mil, federal, state ID shows, should not be walking around in another state at that time. Been detected driving a car into or out of another city, walking around in another city in the past half an hour...
Been passed as a very random person far away will not be much use as the shared location tracking gets better.
Been seen near a protest, federal site, sensitive site, protected site, just been in a city... will often allow security staff or law enforcemnt to take their own images, follow a person back to their car to capture the front or back plates or induce a conversation looking for such things as wigs or padding.
Better real time national sharing of data will stop a lot of shared ID's, the overstaying visa issue, not having any real documents, having been given very limited state ID.
Other issues nations face is the longer term sharing of a legal ID by another person. It can be hard to track some in jobs with few questions or using limited digital databases. Capturing all faces e.g. as drivers, passengers, pedestrians in a city, entering a city will be key. Any unexpected duplicates will soon be logged in real time. Thats why so many public and private partnerships now exist to share all city CCTV, rail, bus, road use with vast federal CCTV networks. On a bike with a helmet and deep shapes around the eyes, nose might still be an option:) Not many options for diplomats, the press or whistleblowers to just meet anymore or to be very aware of expected human surveillance
Make sure your 3d printer is not wifi ready in the UK?
The use of vans with directional antennae looking for a flow of banned 3d model data would be interesting.
Physically connected data would ensure creation privacy. Also be aware of download file tracking or site visits been logged to detect file downloads.
The next big contractor sell is to offer to generate 3D representations from any 2D face image.
Facial expressions, poses and lighting become less of an issue. Turning away or looking up/down will not prevent the cheaper, newer 3d systems from getting a more correct match at around 10 million matches per second.
Thats great for any building security and anyone detected outside with a camera.
The next step is to build in tracking for any new face that should have worked, e.g. face on, good lighting. Why is this still an unknown person in real time when the face/stats does not match the CCTV live image?
Re the 'identification will fail" could soon be the new start of a random chat down. If everyone else gets a good fit to a database, why is that person not passing on a real time match factoring in height or other detected or listed stats.
With more and more nations collecting images at all entry and exit points for all people entering a nation and having a real time database of their own citizens via everyday state, federal photo ID applications, finding the difficult to ID is then just a random chat down a walk or drive away.
Security can then just walk out, get a face on image. If that still does not match "any" state or federal database in near real time, parallel construction can then be used to get more ID to get around most stop and identify statutes. Conversations with terms like may we see, could, can, paper work will need an ID like questions asked in a loud way over time by a few different officials with the hint of further investigations can often clear up any issues with CCTV captured images on public land.
A fast chat down on public land can often induce photo ID to be produced for any reason. If the majority of people passing a location are detected to a good standard, site security or police can then question any one who did not get a good database fit. A few people every hour for some reason and it looks totally random and very legal:)
i.e. any alternations will have to match a real person that can pass human and CCTV observation. The next federal trick will be location, time tracking, why is the same person able to be listed on CCTV in two different states or time zones at almost the same time:) A quick review by a human will show an expected issue or something that needs further investigation.
With todays low prices on what contractors can sell at a state and federal level?
At least 50 U.S. law enforcement agencies quietly deployed radars that let them effectively see inside homes, with little notice to the courts or the public. (January 20, 2015) http://www.usatoday.com/story/...
Gone is "the right of a man to retreat into his own home and there be free from unreasonable governmental intrusion."
AC they would be using a device like a dirtbox https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/... .."mounted on aircraft all over the U.S., to detect and locate cell phones and thus collect information, and can be used to jam phones."
The tech has been around for many years, just nows its cheap enough to collect it all on a federal police budget per event.
Spy-in-sky patrols over British cities from 3 August 2008 shows what can be collected in a domestic setting after an aircraft is upgraded to capture all aspects of a cellular network http://www.dailymail.co.uk/new...
"They are attempting to identify suspects using ‘voice prints’"
"which can monitor computer and mobile-phone communication and long-wave radios"
Voice prints, phone mapping over time is the real prize, a release of images just helps hide other details from any FOIA request.
Win32 direct to the user is the issue from the distant past that can soon be fixed.
Stability will be enforced when all apps are developed via and can only be signed for from a big bright new Shopping gui.
Given the total needed overview e.g. of Ireland/UK and all communications in and out of Ireland in the ~1970-90's no future treaty would in any way hinder such ability to bulk collect. The UK gained amazing and total insight into Irish fundraising and resulting hardware shipments from the US east coast by bulk collecting every call to and from the USA to Ireland and the wider UK.
Any needed help from the telco sector was a given when setting up a new network, been granted a telco role.
Police powers might be reworked for the public but thats to hide deeper gov and mil bulk collection from legal teams in open court.
e.g. CID might not get as much raw material as a good legal team might uncover the origins given time, funds and questions in open court or to gov. The ability to stay more hidden e.g. a more protected Special Branch could have been a better option for mil/gov collected material. All any open court questions would find is very legal primitive sigint, call logs vs very advance sat ability, decryption, teams to track any person globally.
The other option was to present the legal teams with police support teams as been the full and only the origin of all logs, collection and advice. No further legal ability was then given to uncover the more complex role of gov, mil teams in any open court setting.
Any other skill set was not for open court and thus outside discovery and did not fall under any public treaty consideration.
Any treaty is fine to sign and keep if nobody can ever find or report on any issues with the obligations and protections in public. In or out of the EU does not confirm, uncover, allow for the discovery of or gain oversight of any wider digital collection ability.
Its often smaller sub sets of open or worked on data that gets pooled.
e.g. a cold call pretending to be a gov official with a limited list of personal information. http://www.smh.com.au/business...

.."mounted on aircraft all over the U.S., to detect and locate cell phones and thus collect information, and can be used to jam phones."
The tech has been around for many years, just nows its cheap enough to collect it all on a federal police budget per event.

"They are attempting to identify suspects using ‘voice prints’"
"which can monitor computer and mobile-phone communication and long-wave radios"
Voice prints, phone mapping over time is the real prize, a release of images just helps hide other details from any FOIA request.

Given the total needed overview e.g. of Ireland/UK and all communications in and out of Ireland in the ~1970-90's no future treaty would in any way hinder such ability to bulk collect.
The UK gained amazing and total insight into Irish fundraising and resulting hardware shipments from the US east coast by bulk collecting every call to and from the USA to Ireland and the wider UK.
Any needed help from the telco sector was a given when setting up a new network, been granted a telco role.
Police powers might be reworked for the public but thats to hide deeper gov and mil bulk collection from legal teams in open court.
e.g. CID might not get as much raw material as a good legal team might uncover the origins given time, funds and questions in open court or to gov. The ability to stay more hidden e.g. a more protected Special Branch could have been a better option for mil/gov collected material. All any open court questions would find is very legal primitive sigint, call logs vs very advance sat ability, decryption, teams to track any person globally.
The other option was to present the legal teams with police support teams as been the full and only the origin of all logs, collection and advice. No further legal ability was then given to uncover the more complex role of gov, mil teams in any open court setting.
Any other skill set was not for open court and thus outside discovery and did not fall under any public treaty consideration.
Any treaty is fine to sign and keep if nobody can ever find or report on any issues with the obligations and protections in public. In or out of the EU does not confirm, uncover, allow for the discovery of or gain oversight of any wider digital collection ability.
