Hank, Indeed when the FBI visited with NANOG in Washington D.C., the guy stated pretty plainly that if you didn't want to use Carnivore you didn't have to. You merely needed to provide the information listed in the warrant. Now I'm not a provider, and I can't verify what he said, but that is what he said. On the other hand, what assurance is there that there is no trap door in NetWitness. What one might do is place filters on the port that connects such devices so as to limit the intercept to information that could be conceivably covered by the warrant. I've heard from some ISPs that they would rather the FBI not even tell them who the target is, for fear of the information leaking. Strange legal jungle we live in. Comments? (So, Ran, got both barrels loaded, yet? ;-) Eliot ----- Original Message ----- From: "Hank Nussbacher" <[email protected]> Sent: Wednesday, October 03, 2001 9:45 PM Subject: Carnivore alternative > > http://www.theregister.co.uk/content/6/21992.html > > Hank >
