This is interesting. Why didn't you mention it, Mark?
SECURITY ALTERNATIVE TO CARNIVORE
NetICE, a software security company, has developed a free and open software
product called "Altivore" as "alternative to Carnivore," the e-mail
surveillance system favored by the FBI but criticized by privacy advocates.
The company's chief technology officer said: "We wrote Altivore to
correspond exactly to what the FBI says what Carnivore does... We founded
this company in order to protect peoples' privacy. By showing the source
code for Altivore, we're narrowing the debate to the true issues.''
Altivore can be downloaded free from the company's Web site. (AP/San Jose
