* [[Echelon]] is the term popularly used for an automated global interception and relay system operated by the intelligence agencies in five nations: the United States, the United Kingdom, Canada, Australia and New Zealand (it is believed that ECHELON is the code name for the portion of the system that intercepts satellite-based communications)" - quote from echelonwatch site [http://archive.aclu.org/echelonwatch/faq.phpl]. See also this report [http://cryptome.org/echelon-ep.php]. This system has been around since the early 70's, but did not become more widely known until the governments of Australia and New Zealand unwittingly admitted to its existence only a few years ago. The US government still declines to comment on its existence.
