Who said the user end needs to support a "tap" being done? They can
just force ISP's to log everything at the headend. Your phone doesn't
need a specialized device to tap it right now does it; cell phones
either; the FBI can call the NSA anytime they want without a tap order
and get them to trigger ECHELON when your voice is apparant on any
line.
