THE FEDS Part I
"Electronic Surveillance"
By The Dutchman
with special thanks to The Kracken
][ THE SHADOW BROTHERHOOD ][
In todays society everything can be a bust. Even calling between pay
fones can be immediately tapped. Any room can be bugged. Laser beams can be
bounced off window panes to reveal conversations. Whispered conversations in a
traveling car can be revealed by a properly equip speeding car. Police
Infiltrators carry bugs in the heals of their shoes. In Basement rooms of
telephone exchanges, recorders monitor hundreds of telephone calls.
These are but a few of the many ways ma and the fed's try and bust ya,
there's many many more from pen bugs to neck tie bugs and on and on.
In order to distinguish, a Tap is used only for fones where as a bug is
for monitoring convo's in a room. Elsur is the FBI's acronym for these arts.
The FBI as well as many other installations have been known to make
"Suicide Taps" These are illegal taps and called "Suicide" because of the
result if found out. This doesn't bother the agencies very much for with the
info they can gather their bond to find some way to bust you legally, that is
as long as their tap isn't found out.
Surveillance goes so far as transatlantic. According to the National
Security Agency (NSA), every transatlantic call entering or leaving the U.S. is
recorded by the agency. The army appears to also monitor the mails. An
example of this was recorded when a 14 year old boy decided he wanted to go to
camp in East Germany, a camp run by the East German communist party. All
summer long all letters written by his parents to him and officials there where
summarized by a unit of ASA known as U.S. Army Operations and Research
Detachment (USAO & RD) in Frankfurt. The address of the unit is the same as
NSA headquarters for Europe. The USAO &RD passed these along to the U.S. legal
attache in Bonn, He passed them on to FBI H.Q. in Washington D.C. and than to
the FBI H.Q. in Philadelphia.
None of this suggests that a special investigation was going on, infact
all facts point in the direction that the FBI became curious from routine
transatlantic mail checks by Army Surveillance. Now, is East Germany an
exception or are all bloc countries checked?
According to federal figures taps operating for a period of 2 weeks for
one year cost $700 for the feds and $388 for locals per day. At these rates
100 taps operating for one year in N.Y.C. would cost one and a half times the
N.Y.C. Intelligence Units budget. So where do all the money for "legal" taps
come from? They have to be using illegal ones.
The best guide to electronic surveillance equipment comes from a
commercial publishing firm called Sirchie Fingerprint Laboratories of
Moerestown, N.J.. These are only available to law enforcement agencies. The
catalogue is suppose to only come to those who send the correct letterhead of
legit authorities. I have one. It features microfones smaller than a button,
ones that can be used as a working piece of a telephone. Dozens of systems all
containing a recorder. There's a few with the logo "Undetectable by telephone
company." All mic's run between 175-200 mhz. So you could make your own or
pick up the wave from a bought radio. Another catalog is by Jensen Tools inc
of 7815 S. 46th street, Phoenix, Arizona. You can send away for this one. It
may not specialize in surveillance but it does include telephone test
equipment, Linesman handsets, recorders that only start when a pre-fixed tone
is given, traces and many others.
Agents who infiltrate places are usually the ones who hold their post
because of their skill not background or honesty for the cause. One might be
in a terrorist group simply for their explosive expertise, or a computer group
for their hacking expertise. You can also tell pigs by what they wear when
they aren't around you, or eventually if their seen around federal buildings.
If your really worried about someone check everything on them out, if they say
their sick check, if they say their mothers sick check, use the CN/A operator,
check it could well prove worth it.
One good example of this was when a fellow hacker under the name of "The
Revenger" who was actually a cop started up a BBS. He had people from The
Shadow Brotherhood, Mtn. High hackers, The Nihilist order and KAOS inc. which
was basically all of these put together. The BBS included myself, Dr. D-code,
The Highwayman, Sir William, and many others. Some of the local members are
now facing charges for credit fraud, and illegal trafficing. The sysop was not
to be trusted, just to show you what we're up against.
What can you do about electronic surveillance? Well exposure of the ones
doing it is great help, better laws. But you must remember such agencies such
as the FBI like to make it seam they are bigger than they really are, that they
have agents everywhere and are listening to every conversation, this simply
cannot be done. Going through the courts is the best you can do, and if you
inlist such agencies as the ACLU, the Citizens Commission to Investigate the
FBI (CCIFBI) or some other civil liberties organization (the feds hate em).
But you must always beware, in at least one case Bell's special Intelligence
force (SIF) has been known to result to harassment and such because of no
"legal" way to get info out of a person, But of course this is extreme.

THE FEDS PART II
"FED FRAUD"

In this article I will show how far the FBI goes to get info and stray from
their own ground rules. The first one is a statement they try ad get you to
sign called "Advice of Rights." Which, when read by one of legal training, is a
waiver of your rights.
INTERROGATION; ADVICE OF RIGHTS
\YOUR RIGHTS\
Place....................
Date.....................
Time.....................
Before we ask you any questions, you must first understand your rights.
You have the right to remain silent.
Anything you say can be used against you in court.
You have the right to a lawyer for advice before we ask you any questions
and to have him with you during questioning.
[etc. omitted]
<Waiver>
I have read this statement of my rights and I understand what my rights are
(here's where most people stop reading). I am willing to make a statement and
answer questions. I do not want a lawyer at this time. I understand and know
what I am doing. No promises or threats have been made to me and no pressure or
coercion of any kind has been used against me.
Signed..............................
Witness:.......................
Witness:.......................
Time:..........................
The last part of this statement most people take for granted. Who figures the
FBI's running a scam, well by signing this document you have completly given up
your rights.
The IRS', Tabacco and Alcohol Tax divison has been knwon to check libraries
for people who check out books on explosives. Supposedly some 25 million
civilians are onn the FBI's files, they say they have cut this down some, who
knows for sure. Each agent keeps his own files that pertain to him.The file
arrangement goes as follows:
1-351-5537
The one (1) tells the agent its a file on racisim, 351 is the article in that
file and 5537 is the files person number.
A law was passed some time ago that made it mandatory for all credit bureaus
to give info on you to the police or any other law enforcement agency if they
asked for it. Such as TRW has some 30 million americans on-line. Some info
includes not only your credit history but your personal habits, traits, medical
history, finances, hell they know more about you then some of your friends.
Total some 110 million americans are on file. You have the right to see any
files any agency has on you, but get this, they have the right to declare that
your file is "specifically required by Executive order to be kept secret in the
interest of national security." Now who decides what is and isn't national
security? If you decide to take this to court (you can) it has been known that
in the course of travel your Bill."
The following is what must be done to connect a tap. It is from the Omnibus
Crime control act; however, I lost my copy so it is done simply by memory, it
is correct what is there, but theres much more to it. This is meant to simply
give you and example of what a pain a "legal" tap must go through before being
put on-line.
1. An agent who wishes to establish a tao must:
A. Give tappees complete name
B. Reason for tap
C. Proof that tap is needed
D. The tappee must own or be leasing the place of tap
E. Must give desired time frame
F. Tell if other methods have failed.
* It is approximated that it takes 4-6 people to run a tap on a day to day
basis, that is on a legal day to day basis.
There are many more rules. Taps may only be placed on line for periods of 2
weeks however they may be resubmitted for further time or an agent may request
extended time be allowed if he feels it's necessary (more procedures) and he
must request it within 48hr.s of the tap being placed online. They must also
place all this on (get this) blue 3 X 5 cards.
As you can see its a bitch to place a tap on your line (a legal one). As a
lawyer in a goverment case put it, "a window into a mans soul." Which for me at
least describes a tap to the tee. You can reach me on Metalland ][ 503 253 5300
