more fun reading, if you're curious: "Exploiting Lawful Intercept to Wiretap the Internet" http://www.blackhat.com/presentations/bh-dc-10/Cross_Tom/BlackHat-DC-2010-Cross-Attacking-LawfulI-Intercept-slides.pdf "Lawful Interception and Countermeasures" http://web.it.kth.se/~maguire/DEGREE-PROJECT-REPORTS/080922-Romanidis_Evripidis-with-cover.pdf ... and, there are rumors VUPEN got hacked a few days ago. their weaponized exploits, also marketed as "lawful intercept" technologies, are sure to be abused if now in the wild. we could do this all day! ;) _______________________________________________ Full-Disclosure - We believe in it.
