Much ado about nothing. I assumed that all phonecalls from abroad were always screened by Echelon even prior to 9/11.

It appears to me that it's actually more targeted. Calls from suspicious sources or areas are being intercepted.

Good.

I'm not even sure wiretaps are being put on specific call recipients. I think it's being done midstream. If you get a call from al-Qaida, chances are that the call is being recorded, even if you were never on any government watch list prior to picking up the phone.
