New spy tools--for good or evil?

COMMENTARY -- Cisco Systems has created a more efficient and targeted
way for police and intelligence agencies to eavesdrop on people whose
Internet service provider uses their company's routers.
The company recently published a proposal that describes how it plans
to embed "lawful interception" capability into its products. Among the
highlights: Eavesdropping "must be undetectable," and multiple police
agencies conducting simultaneous wiretaps must not learn of one
another. If an Internet provider uses encryption to preserve its
customers' privacy and has access to the encryption keys, it must turn
over the intercepted communications to police in a descrambled form.
Cisco's decision to begin offering "lawful interception" capability as
an option to its customers could turn out to be either good or bad
news for privacy.
