Abstract :
Wiretapping and surveillance are often covered by veils of secrecy that intelligence and law enforcement agencies reflexively apply to what they consider their most sensitive operations. Unfortunately, when the veils are lifted, we frequently discover that the technologies at the root of surveillance systems are often deeply flawed.
