Im EU-Parlament wird eine dringliche Anfrage zu ECHELON vorbereitet. Dass es für die Kommission dieses Mal nicht so einfach sein wird, das alles als "rumours in the press" abzutun, ist sehr wahrscheinlich. -.-. --.- -.-. --.- -.-. --.- -.-. --.- -.-. --.- -.-. --.- relayed by Mark Hughes, Institute for the Study of Privacy Issues (ISPI) ISPI4Privacy@earthlink.net -.-. --.- -.-. --.- -.-. --.- -.-. --.- -.-. --.- -.-. --.- ECHELON: Follow-up Links & 60 Minutes With all the recent interest in the ECHELON global surveillance system, some of you may appreciate a short background note and some follow-up links on the topic. ECHELON is operated jointly by five spy organizations under the umbrella of the 1948 UKUSA (pronounced you-koo-za) signals intelligence (SIGNET) agreement. The five SIGNET agencies are the NSA in America, Canada's Communications Security Establishment (CSE), the UK's Government Communications Headquarters (GCHQ), Australia's Defense Signals Directorate (DSD) and New Zealand's Government Communications Security Bureau (GCSB). The NSA is the senior member and calls virtually all the shots. 60 Minutes: On February 27 (Sunday) the CBS show 60 Minutes has scheduled a segment on ECHELON in which Canadian ex- spy and author Mike Frost reveals that then UK Prime Minister Thatcher asked Canada's CSE spooks to spy on two of her cabinet Ministers via the ECHELON system. Also, Margaret Newsham [http://www1.ekstrabladet.dk/VisArtikel.iasp?PageID=43054], an ex-employee of Lockheed Martin and important player in the development of the ECHELON system will be featured in the segment.
