Deutch and Woolsey said that while NSA may have a few problems at the moment those will be overcome with sufficient funding which must be provided. Deutch said the French had the same apprehension about new technology when telegraph began to spread and threatened the spooks' thriving letter opening program. That anxiety soon disappeared when it was learned that spying on telegraphy was even easier than on paper despite the increase in traffic. Deutch surmised that NSA would go on to greater successes against latest technology, again with sufficient funding. Unsaid was whether the spooks welcomed the new technology and its enhanced spyability over legacy systems. And, to be sure, that alarm about "going deaf" was the SOS. That cliche is becoming as common as "cyber Pearl Harbor," though not as often shrieked as cutting-edge lipflap about "domestic terrorism" and "weapons of mass destruction." These latter two were much mawed by Deutch and Woolsey at the session, suggesting that foreign enemies were nothing compared to the homeland's. Undersea cables are of interest, from this viewpoint, only to spy on one's own. -.-. --.- -.-. --.- -.-. --.- -.-. --.- -.-. --.- - -.-. --.- -.-. --.- -.-. --.- -.-. --.- -.-. --.- -.-. --.- edited by Harkank published on: 2001-05-25 comments to office@quintessenz.at subscribe Newsletter - -.-. --.- -.-. --.- -.-. --.- -.-. --.- -.-. --.- -.-. --.-
