The author of the STOA report on Echelon, Duncan Campbell,=20
offers the report:
http://www.iptvreports.mcmail.com/stoa_cover.htm
We offer a zipped version Duncan provided:
http://jya.com/ic2000.zip (961K)
There are two others in the series which are now completed
of comparable interest, both of which should be available=20
soon if we can get STOA's agreement to allow publication=20
prior to their being offered at the STOA site:
(1)The legality of the interception of electronic communications:=20
A concise survey of the principal legal issues and instruments=20
under international, European and national law, by Chris ELLIOTT,=20
Surrey, UK
Final Study, Working document for the STOA Panel, Workplan 1998 -=20
98/14/01, EN, April 1999, PE 168.184/part 2/4=20
(2)Encryption and cryptosystems in electronic surveillance:=20
A survey of the technology assessment issues, by Franck=20
LEPR=C9VOST, Technische Universit=E4t Berlin, Germany
Final Study, Working document for the STOA Panel, Workplan 1998 -=20
98/14/01, EN, April 1999, PE 168.184/part 3/4=20
The fourth in the series has not been publicized on the=20
STOA site.
The person at STOA in charge if anyone wants to encourage
early release:
Frans SCHAERLAEKEN
Parlement Europ=E9en
STOA SCH 4/62
L-2929 Luxembourg
E-mail: fschaerlaeken@europarl.eu.int
The reason I'm told STOA has not formally released the
documents is that there is considerable dispute within
the European Parliament about informing the public
on the true state of surreptitious electronic surveillance
and other technologies of political control.
