Bruce Schneier points to a recent incident in Greece where about 100 politicians and political leaders were subject to mobile phone wiretapping. Schneier points out that the wiretapping was facilitated by new network surveillance requirements, which were then used by the "bad guys" for their own purposes. A good lesson for Canada as we renew the debate over lawful access and consider the risks associated with a Canadian surveillance network (Thanks Stacy!).
