秘密黑匣子探針將監測網活動
星期六， 2009年5月2日
間諜院長在英國緊迫向前以秘密計劃由Jacqui史密斯，家庭秘書，大臣climbdown結束公開監視監測所有互聯網用途和電話儘管公告。 GCHQ，政府的竊聽的中心，在英國開發被分類的技術攔截和監測所有電子郵件、網站參觀和社會網絡會議。 代辦處也能跟蹤電話被做在互聯網，並且所有電話登陸線和機動性。 £1十億調查的項目-叫掌握互聯網(MTI) -將依靠數以萬計「橫跨網上基礎設施隱蔽地被插入的黑匣子」探針。 最高機密的節目開始去年被實施，但它的存在通過GCHQ工作廣告疏忽地被透露了運載了計算機貿易press。 上星期，在什麼看來是讓步對保密性運動家，史密斯宣佈她在英國放棄有爭議的計劃為了一個唯一「哥哥」數據庫能存放在中心所有通信數據。 「政府認可了移動的保密性涵義[和]因此不提議追求這移動」，她說。 劫掠的有利標題，史密斯宣佈由£2決定公開金錢在分開的數據庫改為將花費幫助私有互聯網和電話公司的十億保留信息12個月。 然而，她沒有提及堅固另外的總和-共計更多比£1十億在三年期間-已經被分配了到GCHQ為它的MTI節目。 Shami Chakrabarti，自由的主任，說史密斯的公告看來是「煙幕」。 因為它給了狀態直接存取大家的通信， 「我們反對哥哥數據庫。 但黑匣子這個網絡通過後門達到同一件事」， Chakrabarti說。 消息來源顯露£200m合同被授予了洛克希德馬丁公司，美國防禦巨人。 第二個合同被給了Detica，英國它有密切聯繫對情報機構的企業。 來源在Cheltenham， Gloucestershire郊外認為Iain Lobban， GCHQ主任，監督巨型的新的複合體的建築在代辦處的「多福餅」總部裡面。 A huge room of super-computers will help the agency to monitor — and record — data passing through black-box probes placed at critical traffic junctions with internet service providers and telephone companies, allowing GCHQ to spy at will. An industry insider, who has been briefed on GCHQ’s plans, said he could not discuss the programme because he had signed the Official Secrets Act. However, he admitted that the project would mark a step change in the agency’s powers of surveillance. At the moment the agency is able to use probes to monitor the content of calls and e-mails sent by specific individuals who are the subject of police or security service investigations. Every interception must be authorised by a warrant signed by the home secretary or a minister of equivalent rank. The new GCHQ internet-monitoring network will shift the focus of the surveillance state away from a few hundred targeted people to everyone in the UK. “Although the paper [work] does not say it, its clear implication is that those kinds of probes should be extended to cover the entire population for the purposes of monitoring communications data,” said the industry source. GCHQ placed an advertisement in the specialist IT press for a head of major contracts to be given “operational responsibility for the ‘Mastering the Internet’ (MTI) contract”. The senior official, to be paid an annual salary of up to £100,000, would lead the procurement of the hardware and the analysis tools needed to build and run the system. Ministers have said they do not intend to snoop on the actual content of e-mails or telephone calls. The monitoring will instead focus on who an individual is communicating with or which websites and chat rooms they are visiting. Advocates of the black-box system say it is essential if the authorities are to keep pace with the communications revolution. They say terrorists are stateless, highly mobile and their communications are difficult to detect among the billions of pieces of data passing through the internet. Last year about 14% of telephone calls were made using voice over internet protocol (Voip) systems such as Skype. A report by a group of privy counsellors predicts that most calls will be made via the internet within five years. GCHQ said it did not want to discuss how the data it gathered would be used.
