Its not about base stations. The encryption/decryption is not done in 
base stations, but in message centers. Sometimes, true, they are located 
in same spot. But they are still not the same thing, but two different 
components of the GSM network.

BTW. Talking about insecurity of Finnish parlament and TeliaSonera:s 
GSM, take a look at these (sorry, only in Finnish) latest issues about 
TeliaSonera having no idea about security whatsoever. Luckily, they are 
moving to their GSM:s on Elisa networks... :)
