"South Korea's national spy agency has admitted that it monitored a Google Inc.'s Gmail account of a citizen accused of violating the national security law, a local newspaper reported Friday. The National Intelligence Service (NIS) received a court approval to monitor the Gmail account of Kim Hyung-geun, 52, to collect email evidences regarding his allegedly pro-North Korean activities, the Hankyoreh daily reported, citing a document filed with the Constitutional Court. The NIS argued that "packet monitoring" of Kim's Gmail account was "inevitable" because local citizens evade investigations by seeking a so-called cyber exile in foreign email services, rendering search warrants ineffective, the agency wrote in the legal document." --clip-- Also http://english.hani.co.kr/kisa/section-014000000/home01.html Juha-Matti _______________________________________________ Fun and Misc security discussion for OT posts. https://linuxbox.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/funsec Note: funsec is a public and open mailing list.
