The FBI has recently formed a secretive surveillance unit with an ambitious=
goal: to invent technology that will let police more readily eavesdrop on =
Internet and wireless communications.
The establishment of the Quantico, Va.-based unit, which is also staffed by=
agents from the U.S. Marshals Service and the Drug Enforcement Agency, is =
a response to technological developments that FBI officials believe outpace=
law enforcement's ability to listen in on private communications.
While the FBI has been tight-lipped about the creation of its Domestic Comm=
unications Assistance Center, or DCAC -- it declined to respond to requests=
made two days ago about who's running it, for instance -- CNET has pieced =
together information about its operations through interviews and a review o=
f internal government documents.
DCAC's mandate is broad, covering everything from trying to intercept and d=
ecode Skype conversations to building custom wiretap hardware or analyzing =
the gigabytes of data that a wireless provider or social network might turn=
over in response to a court order. It's also designed to serve as a kind o=
f surveillance help desk for state, local, and other federal police. =09=09=
