-Caveat Lector- Easy as pie, for them with unlimited power. Ever read Neuromancer or any of the CyberPunk sci-fi stuff? Some of it's PRE-internet.... et voila- here is the 'net they were writing about... the capability of spoofing IP addresses & stuff is even within the reach of some hackers- let ALONE government covert-types with "powerful" access.... You DO know that the U.S. Department of Defense BUILT the original Internet..... ? No big news that project Echelon decodes EVERY bit of internet traffic and passes it through pattern/word recognition software.... every .... bit. Telephone too, as far as I know... even fax, 'tis said.
