FBI wants widespread monitoring of ‘illegal’ web activity美国联邦调查局要广泛监测的'非法'的Web活动
By通过 Anne Broache 安妮broache |
The FBI on Wednesday called for new legislation that would allow federal police to monitor the Internet for “illegal activity.” The suggestion from FBI Director Robert Mueller, which came during a House of Representatives Judiciary Committee hearing, appears to go beyond a current plan to monitor traffic on federal-government networks.美国联邦调查局对周三呼吁新的立法将允许联邦警察以监视网际网路的“非法活动”的建议，由美国联邦调查局局长罗伯特米勒，开始在美国国会众议院司法委员会的听证会，似乎要超越目前的计划监察交通对联邦政府网络。 Mueller seemed to suggest that the bureau should have a broad “omnibus” authority to conduct monitoring and surveillance of private-sector networks as well.穆勒似乎暗示主席团应具有广泛的“总括”当局进行监测和监督私营部门的网络，以及。
The surveillance should include all Internet traffic, Mueller said, “whether it be .mil, .gov, .com–whichever network you’re talking about.” (See监察应包括所有的网际网路交通，穆勒说： “无论是。百万， 。政务， 。 COM的为准网络您谈到” （见 the transcript 全文 of the hearing.)该听证会） 。
In response to questions from Rep. Darrell Issa, a California Republican, Mueller said his idea “balances on one hand, the privacy rights of the individual who are receiving the information, but on the other hand, given the technology, the necessity of having some omnibus search capability utilizing filters that would identify the illegal activity as it comes through and give us the ability to preempt that illegal activity where it comes through a choke point.”在回答问题时，由众议员伊萨（ Darrell ，加州共和党，穆勒说，他的理念“的结余，一方面，个人资料私隐个人的权利，谁是接收信息的，但另一方面，由于科技的发展，必须要有一些综合性的搜索能力，利用过滤器，将查明的非法活动，因为它来通过，给我们的能力preempt非法活动的地方来，通过扼流圈点“ 。
In response, Issa said: “Can you have someone on your staff designated to work with members of Congress on trying to craft that legislation?”在回应时，伊萨说： “你能不能有人对你的工作人员指定的工作与国会议员们就试图工艺法例” ？
If any omnibus Internet-monitoring proposal became law, it could implicate the Fourth Amendment’s guarantee of freedom from unreasonable searches and seizures.如果任何综合的互联网监测的建议成为法律，它可以牵连的第四次修订的保证免于不合理的搜查和扣押。 In general, courts have ruled that police need search warrants to obtain the content of communication, and the federal Wiretap Act created “在一般的，法院裁定，警方需要搜查令，以获取内容的沟通，和联邦窃听法创造“ super warrant 超级手令 ” wiretap orders that require additional steps and judicial oversight. “窃听命令，需要额外的步骤和司法监督。
In addition, it’s unclear whether “illegal activity” would be limited to responding to denial-of-service attacks and botnets, or would also include detecting other illegal activities, such as online gambling, the distribution of “obscene” images of adults engaged in sexual acts, or selling drugs without a license.此外，它目前还不清楚是否有“非法活动”将是有限的应对拒绝服务攻击和僵尸网络，或也将包括检测其他非法活动，如网上赌博，分配“淫亵”的形象成年人在从事性行为，或贩卖毒品的无牌。

To be fair, Wednesday’s discussion of the plan was geared toward cybercrime and the Bush administration’s classified “cyberinitiative,” which includes要公平，周三的讨论，该计划是面向网络犯罪和布什政府的机密“ cyberinitiative ” ，其中包括 a shadowy program known as Einstein 阴影计划被称为爱因斯坦 . 。
Some politicians have already raised concerns that even Einstein, which is described as dealing only with government networks and not private ones, could infringe upon the privacy rights of American citizens.一些政客已经引起关注，即使爱因斯坦，这是形容为只处理政府网络，而不是私人的，可能侵犯私隐权的美国公民。 It’s already in place at 15 federal agencies, but Homeland Security has said it’s still preparing the necessary privacy impact assessments for a proposed $293 million governmentwide Einstein expansion.它的已经到位，在15联邦机构，但国土安全部已表示，该公司仍准备必要的私隐影响评估，为拟议的二亿九千三万美元governmentwide爱因斯坦扩张。
Issa, for his part, referred on Wednesday to malicious attacks being undertaken by foreign and domestic hackers who want to “take control of computers” and harvest the national-security secrets and private information of government agencies, private companies, and individual Americans.伊萨，他的部分，提到在周三恶意攻击正在进行的外国和国内黑客谁要“采取控制的电脑”和收获国家安全机密和个人信息的政府机构，私人公司和个人的美国人。
“What authorities do you need to monitor, looking for those illegal activities, and then act on those, both defensively and, either yourselves or certainly other agencies, offensively in order to shut down a crime in process?” Issa asked. “当局做什么，你需要监测，寻找那些非法活动，并采取行动，然后对这些，无论是在防守上，无论是自己或其他机构，当然，在进攻上，以关闭了一个犯罪过程中” ？伊萨问。
In response, Mueller said he would be happy to have his legislative staff work with members of Issa’s committee on creating a bill for a broader-reaching surveillance system.在回应时，穆勒表示，他将很高兴有其立法的工作人员与各位议员伊萨的委员会对条例草案，创造了一个更广泛而深远的监视系统。
Issa suggested that perhaps the FBI already has the power to seek voluntary private-sector partners that would like to be “defended” by its agents, provided that they give the FBI their consent.伊萨建议，也许美国联邦调查局已经有权力谋取自愿私营部门的合作伙伴，想“捍卫”其代理人，只要他们给联邦调查局他们的同意。 Mueller, however, wasn’t so sure, saying, “that’s going to require some thought.”穆勒，不过，不是那么肯定，他说： “这要需要一些思考” 。
