I just heard this from a commentator on ABC News: [US Intelligence] has the ability to "Sweep up all communication going around the world in a very broad way." There are currently "millions and millions of phone calls in this vacuum cleaner." "They will be sorting through all of the communications going through phone numbers that they have an interest in." The reporter also mentioned that the officials have to be careful not to intercept calls of US Citizens. ---------------------------------- ObOperationalAndRelevant Link: http://dailynews.yahoo.com/h/nm/20010906/wr/mideast_usa_internet_dc_3.html ObAlsoOperationallyRelevant: http://www.thetimes.co.uk/article/0,,3-2001303964,00.html
