BE CAREFUL BOYS THE DEA COULD BE USING THIS TOO...

By United Press International

A federal judge has given the FBI 10 days to respond to a privacy group's
request for information about the government's "Carnivore" e-mail
surveillance system. The Washington-based Electronic Privacy Information
Center is seeking documents and software concerning the inner workings of
Carnivore, which is designed to monitor and capture e-mail going to or from
people under criminal investigation. The privacy group had asked the FBI to
grant expedited review of its request filed under the federal Freedom of
Information Act. The FBI agreed Wednesday to grant such a review. But EPIC
lawyer David L. Sobel told U.S. District Judge James Robertson the FBI's
promise to act as soon as practicable was too open-ended. Government lawyer
Lisa Barsoomian contended the group's request for a court order was moot
because the agency had agreed to expedite its review. Carnivore devices are
installed at a suspect's Internet service provider to scan the addressing
information coming or going to a suspect's computer.

Carnivore Mail Progrem eh?

I figure the FEDS can have all the e-mail scanning software they want. In fact I can give them some of my own network monitoring tools for free. It however wont do them any good, because I ENCRYPT my e-mail with PGP. I honestly believe anyone that doesn't take proper security measures to ensure their privacy, should not get upset when their privacy gets comprised. This also goes to alot of my fellow juicers out there...

If you use the computer to get juice or what not. Secure the data so the FEDS wont look at it. Often times the first thing the FEDS will do besides raid your house and search through all your shit is haul your cpu away. With various technitions and tons of "un-deleting hardware" it isn't that hard to un-remove files that were deleted many many days or years back. Encrypt your shit so when they un-delete the file, they will only see encrypted ciphered text. From my FBI friends mouth "Nothing pisses us off the most then information that can't be used!"

PGP Requires passwords correct? Thats a hastle. Am I wrong? I currently use hushmail, but true PGP needs passphrases no?
