CONGRESS WAKE UP NOW FOR CHRIS'SAKES!!!
* "Dispute Arises Over Proposal for Wiretaps"
* By John Markoff, The New York Times, February 15 1997
*
* The telephone companies, after meeting with the FBI, said they wanted to
* be able to monitor tens of thousands of conversations simultaneously in
* metropolitan areas, much more than their stated intention of simply
* trying to transfer its current surveillance capabilities into the
* digital era.
*
* And the Cellular Telephone Industry Association said the FBI wanted to
* monitor 103,190 cellular calls simultaneously nationwide.
*
* Lawyers for AT&T Wireless Services said, "The numbers alone are astounding."
*
* "This is kind of scary," said Tom Wheeler, CTIA president. "What does
* the FBI know about our future that we don't?"

You cannot assign people one-to-one to control everyone in a society.
But you can control society in a HIGHLY effective way using cybernetics,
and do so COST EFFECTIVELY.
That's one of the things CALEA is about, cost effectiveness of maintaining
the spying infrastructure when there are so many companies, new technologies,
so many different data formats.
I wrote 6502 assembler code for an SMDR unit (Station Message Detail
Recording), which is a computer that monitors phone call logs and attaches to
a PBX within a company and can generate long-distance expense reports by
department, person, etc. We had to write a different program interface for
every damn PBX manufacturer. The data format was different for each.
