For a human to read all communications would be an impossible burden.
Instead, apply the following algorithm. Identify people of interest.
Read communications between persons of interest. If several people of
interest talk to Bob, then Bob may well also a person of interest.
/Then/ read their communications. If significant, add Bob to the list
of people of interest.
Looking at communication patterns, Identify the more central nodes among
people of interest. Make a special effort to crack the communications
of the most central nodes.
The technological counter to this is the cypherpunks remailers, which
are unfortunately user hostile, especially when used with a permanent
identity.
