Fallout in Kenyan state house over procurement if digital propaganda spying surveillance software
I did a three part series on how Lawful Interception works within a Telco.
It’s a tard technical and I have quoted the 3GPP standards that enable this
for voice, data and sms. 2G, 3G, 4G and 5G require different interception
points. LEO satellites (such as Starlink) also do comply to the standards
although they are not technically 3GPP networks.
In the third part, I gave a case study of Australia Government has
published on its website information related to LI and it includes amongst
other things periodic reports to its citizenry which include information
and statistics on:
1. The relevant legislation wrt surveillance and lawful interception.
2. Agencies that have intercepted or accessed telecommunications, or
used surveillance devices.
3. The type of warrants applied for, or the type of surveillance devices
used legal developments since the last reporting period.
4. The number of prosecutions and convictions resulting from the use of
intercepted or accessed telecommunications information, or from the use of
surveillance devices., etc
