You are correct.  It's called Echelon.  There are some staellite stations in
England and Austalia and I'm sure others as well.  It's run by the NSA.

It is also rumored that every cross-country electronic conversation anyone
make is been recorded in a condensed form some where in the US.
Conversations like telephone calls, Fax, emails, etc is been recorded and
'diagnosed' for some specific information, and could be reproduced and
expanded where necessary.

With my knowledge of how Intrusion detection works in the Swicth blade
(IDSM), where the blade sits as a line card in the backplane of the Catalyst
6000 switch, it does not interfere with the traffic going through the Switch
backplane but these traffics are copied to its buffer for examination, it
triggers an alarm and send a detail message to the director interface when
it discover a comparison between at least one of its stored signatures and
the packet been examined, I kind of believe that sniffing the whole internet
is VERY possible and it cannot be just rumors.

Again, how secure is the internet??? To me it is just a round-robin stuff.
Someone implemented all the encryption technology we have seen so far and
the key to decrypt then are not hiden far away in heaven, they are still
with us humans.

That would be nobody. (at least in most countries ;-) It's out of control.

I only agree partially. On the other hand, US government put censorship on
the whole Internet, if anyone could remember what happened during US bombing
of the Serbs. The news said that a virus sent NATO secrets to an ICQ site,
which was quickly deleted by an USA robot, and the robot notified government
angecies of the discovery and the results. The same news claimed that the
whole Internet is been checked every 10 minutes by various government
programs. From TV, FRI (or CIA) experts publicly demostrated how they could
trace a message from one end of the world to another end of the world. There
was another news said that US government put on filters on Internet to
search keywords, such as weapon.

Since I am too old to be naive, I wonder what else would be on the filter
list, or inside the robot programs.

Let's hope whoever has the power to control information on Internet only do
it for legitimate purpose. But, I know that I asked for too much.
