Sweden passes
wire-tapping laws.
Intelligence bureau can scan international calls, faxes, e-mails, telephones, SMS, MMS, chatting, blogging...et cetera!!
The Parliament of Sweden (Riksdagen) votted on 17th June 2008 a new wiretapping law which would enable the Swedish National Defence Radio Establishment, (FRA — Defense Radio Agency) to snoop on all traffic crossing the Swedish border. E-mail, fax, telephone, web, SMS, MMS, chatting, you name it, without any requirement to obtain a court order. Furthermore, by law, the sitting Government will be able to instruct the wiretapping agency on what to look for. It also nullifies anonymity for press tipsters and whistleblowers.
Anders Eriksson, former head of the Swedish Security Service (SÄPO), said the idea should be abandoned:
"I think the law needs to be re-written. It is not enough to create a few checks and balances... It is the law itself, there is something wrong with it," Anders Eriksson told Swedish radio ahead of the vote.
The far-reaching attacks on democratic rights contained within the legislation produced concerns about the abuse of the system within a section of the Swedish ruling establishment. Even the Swedish Security Service, SÄPO, has been forced to question the proposal’s legitimacy. Chief legal counsel Lars-Åke Johansson observed that the measures being proposed would be “completely foreign to our form of government.”The National Registry Authority commented that the law “is compatible with neither the Swedish Constitution nor the European Convention on Human Rights. Such an immense expansion of wiretapping of telephony and other forms of communication cannot be legislated under any circumstance.”

Dunia sijui inaelekea wapi...hakuna siri. Hawa jamaa wanaweza hata kusikiliza mazungumzo ya mke na mume majumbani mwao!!!!
Ukitaka kuzungumza na mkeo/mpenzio mambo ya siri/unyumba ingia chooni, fungua maji kwa nguvu, halafu zungumzeni. Ndivyo dunia inakoelekea. Inabidi mtu awe "paranoid" kidogo...
Huo ni uvunjaji wa ibara ya 8 ya haki za binadamu za baraza la haki za binadamu Ulaya...
"Article 8 – Right to respect for private and family life1
1. Everyone has the right to respect for his private and family life, his home and his correspondence.
2. There shall be no interference by a public authority with the exercise of this right except such as is in accordance with the law and is necessary in a democratic society in the interests of national security, public safety or the economic well-being of the country, for the prevention of disorder or crime, for the protection of health or morals, or for the protection of the rights and freedoms of others."

Wajameni
...hizo ndizo athari za TEKNOHAMA (TKKNOlojia ya HAbari za MAwasiliano) Tulie tu....
Hi folks!
typos!!!
ilikuwa niandike
TEKNOlojia...
Waswahili walisema:
"Ukistaajabu ya Mussa utayaona ya Firauni"
Bora Waswidi wao mchezo wao ni TEKNOHAMA inayopitia/katizia Sweden. Wamarekani (na National Security Agency), Waiingereza (na Government Communications Headquarters - GCHQ, Warusi(na Federal Agency of Government Communications and Information - FAPSI), Canada (na The Communications Security Establishment Canada)...
wamekuwa wakifanya hivyo siku nyingi tu...tena kwa kudaka TEKNOHAMA za dunia nzima....
Kama alivyoandika Tausi ...tulie tu...
Nyongeza:
Hao jamaa wanaendesha:
1. ECHELON ambayo ni bab´kubwa. Kazi yake ni:
name used in global media and in popular culture to describe a signals intelligence (SIGINT) collection and analysis network operated on behalf of the five signatory states to the UK-USA Security Agreement (Australia, Canada, New Zealand, the United Kingdom, and the United States, known as AUSCANZUKUS).[1]
The system has been reported in a number of public sources.[2] Its capabilities and political implications were investigated by a committee of the European Parliament during 2000 and 2001 with a report published in 2001.[3]
In its report, the European Parliament states that the term ECHELON is used in a number of contexts, but that the evidence presented indicates that it was the name for a signals intelligence collection system. The report concludes that, on the basis of information presented, ECHELON was capable of interception and content inspection of telephone calls, fax, e-mail and other data traffic globally through the interception of communication bearers including satellite transmission, public switched telephone networks and microwave links. The committee further concluded that "the technical capabilities of the system are probably not nearly as extensive as some sections of the media had assumed".[3]....

Pia kuna.
2. FRENCHELON:
Frenchelon is the nickname given to French signal intelligence system in reference to its Anglo-Saxon counterpart ECHELON.

3. ONYX hii inaendeshwa na Waswiss:
"The system monitor both civil and military communications, such as telephone, fax or Internet traffic, carried by satellite. Onyx uses lists of keywords to filter the intercepted content for information of interest, and the choice of keywords by the intelligence community must be approved by an independent commission. The system is not supposed to monitor internal communications; however, the monitoring of a communication between a person in Switzerland and someone in another country is allowed.[3] The Swiss Federal Council has indicated that Onyx is not linked to other foreign systems such as ECHELON; according to the Council, the confusion and rumours about this issue are due to the sale by Swisscom to Verestar (now SES Americom) of the ground satellite communication station of Leuk (next to the Onyx site) in 2000.[6] The use of the system is controlled by an independent control authority composed of members of the federal administration.[7]
On 8 January 2006, the Swiss newspaper Sonntagsblick (Sunday edition of the Blick newspaper) published a secret report produced by the Swiss government using data intercepted by Onyx.[8][9] The report described a fax sent by the Egyptian department of Foreign Affairs to the Egyptian Embassy in London, and described the existence of secret detention facilities ("black sites") run by the CIA in Eastern Europe.[10] The Swiss government did not officially confirm the existence of the report, but started a military judiciary procedure for leakage of secret documents against the newspaper on 9 January 2006. While the authenticity of the fax was implicitely confirmed during the trial, the reporter and newspaper were cleared of all charges on 17 April 2007.[11][9]

Hivyo Waswidi walichofanya ni kutengeneza ya kwao badala ya kusubiri vya kupewa toka kwa hao wenzao. "Cha mwenzako ni cha mwenzako, si cha kutegemea!"
