You heard that from me, as I posted the big researchposts on Voat about so-called 'CALEA Compliance', which mandates by law that everything over the internet be recorded. Passed as law in 1994, effective 1996, so everything since 1996 was monitored.
Problem was that the technology for dragnet spying didn't exist in 1996, so we had to import it from 'our allies' in Israel, a company called Com Infosys. This is the same Com Infosys that implicated in declassified 9/11 papers.
I'll paste the whole posts for you if you want. I did manage to save those before Voat died.
Sure, thanks. I think I read it in wired, but you go too.
