Among the capabilities that peek out from behind all the indelible black swaths in the documents is an ability to reconstruct an entire Web page as viewed by a subject. A planned, updated version may even be able to capture voice-over-Web communications. Presently the system can capture and record all packet traffic to and from a selected IP, while monitoring a subject's on-line movements.

Hey, did you know that you screen emits signals that can be picked up an decoded, inotherwords, Wireless remote viewing, I'll get back to you on than tough.....

Nice post.... Crapy program......

</Scary>

propaganda. That's my take on this whole thing. Carnivore would almost be more valuable if it didn't really exist. Ya know?

You have a point KorpDeath. As for the screen thing that Noia is speaking of. . . . i've never heard that before. Whats your source for this information? Just curious.

Rogue> I think my company is helping to develop this softwear to keep me out of irc ;)

Noia> I believe the system is called Tempest. The system to read the electomagnetic waves off a computer screen. There are programs designed to work around a tempest system, and flat panel monitors can not be read that way (at least not yet....)

Your probably right Korp. Don't spend the money trying to write the program, just let everyone think you are going to do it. It's like the movie clerks..."If people see money sitting on the counter with no one watching, they assume that there is a hidden camera watching them."

How do I turn my computer off? I hit the button but its still on. How many drivers can my output device take?
