US Federal law requires that phone companies etc make available provisions so Law enforcement can wiretap lines when they have a court order. Currently their are no provisions or if their are they are not being talked about for Law enforcement to tap VOIP conversations.

I imagine that those that are involved in criminal activity are smart enough to realize this and are probably exploiting the technology. With all of the data transmission methods now though I wonder at what point does it become unfeasible for law enforcement to do their job properly. Kind of scary but all we can hope is that they at least attempt to keep up with technology to protect the citizens of this country. [The Register]

Great news for VoIP companies! Internet Week is reporting that VoIP providers will be able to remain free from state regulation. The final decision was rendered in thanks by the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Eighth Circuit in St. Louis. It seems that their ability to escape the potential regulation comes from the simple fact that VoIP is not considered to be a true telephone service….

Wiretapping the Web

Wiretapping the Web 08/15/2004 01:28 PM
A thought-provoking piece from Newsweek's Brian Braiker on the trend toward increased web surveillance:

[T]wo recent legal developments have raised further fears among Web privacy advocates in the United States. In one case, the Federal Communications Commission voted 5-0 last week to prohibit businesses from offering broadband or Internet phone service unless they provide Uncle Sam with backdoors for wiretapping access. And in a separate decision last month, a federal appeals court decided that e-mail and other electronic communications are not protected under a strict reading of wiretap laws. Taken together, these decisions may make it both legally and technologically easier to wiretap Internet communications, some legal experts told NEWSWEEK. "All the trends are toward easier to tap," says Kevin Bankston, an attorney at the nonprofit Electronic Frontier Foundation.

The FCC's plans to require Internet-based phone and broadband services to be engineered for easy wiretapping is a response to a request from the FBI and other law-enforcement agencies. The proposal would bring Internet-based phone providers in line with the Communications Assistance for Law Enforcement Act (CALEA), which requires "telecommunications" carriers to make their networks wiretap-friendly. The FCC says the government must still go through all of the necessary legal steps to obtain the authority to wiretap; CALEA simply makes it technologically easier to do. "This will not have an effect on whether there is appropriate lawful authority -- that remains the same," says FCC spokesman Julius Knapp. "All this really is addressing is whether the carrier is required to have the capability to provide the information that's covered by a court order."

How To Comply With A Total Failure

How To Comply With A Total Failure 01/23/2004 02:23 PM
There was a conference yesterday all about the CAN-SPAM law, where speakers took turns either bashing the law for being a total failure - or telling people how to comply with it. Of course, for the most part, the people looking to comply with it, aren't spammers - but companies that already send out emails and are suddenly afraid that they're going to get in trouble. The article also mentions (thankfully!) that just because you comply with CAN-SPAM it doesn't mean you should spam people. Though, the reasoning presented was a little suspect. They point out that if Nordstrom's spammed people, all anti-spam programs would block them and they would have killed off email as a marketing channel. That's true. However, a much better point would have been that if they had gone and spammed people, many people would be incredibly pissed off at Nordstrom's - and, generally speaking, pissing off everyone you're trying to market to isn't the greatest technique for building a sustainable business. In the meantime, the FTC still won't say what they're doing to enforce CAN SPAM, and my spam count keeps going up.
