The sticky problem remains for any communications carrier, we are looking for a technical solution to a legal problem. I believe that if you encrypted your links sufficiently that it was impossible to siphon the wanted data from your upstream the response would be for the tapping to move down into your data center before the crypto. With CALEA requirements and the Patriot Act they could easily compel you to give them a span port prior to the crypto. Regardless of how well built our networks are internally and externally we still must obey a court order. Sam
