Echelon is perhaps the most powerful intelligence gathering
organization in the world. Several credible reports suggest that
this global electronic communications surveillance system presents
an extreme threat to the privacy of people all over the world.
According to these reports, ECHELON attempts to capture staggering
volumes of satellite, microwave, cellular and fiber-optic traffic,
including communications to and from North America. This vast
quantity of voice and data communications are then processed
through sophisticated filtering technologies.
An ECHELON station's Dictionary contains not only its parent agency's
chosen keywords, but also lists for each of the other four agencies
in the UKUSA system [NSA, GCHQ, DSD, GCSB and CSE]
