An anonymous reader writes "Wired is running an article with some great
investigative journalism. Writer Thomas Green snuck
<http://www.wired.com/news/technology/0,71022-2.html?tw=wn_story_page_next2>
into the ISS World Conference, a trade show featuring communications-tapping
equipment and normally a press-free event. There, he got some very
interesting quotes from the attendees." From the article: "You really need
to educate yourself ... Do you think this stuff doesn't happen in the West?
Let me tell you something. I sell this equipment all over the world,
especially in the Middle East. I deal with buyers from Qatar, and I get more
concern about proper legal procedure from them than I get in the USA."
