Subject: Echelon Story on Australian TV

The cover story for this week's "Sunday" program in Australia (a
mainstream news & current affairs show here) was titled "Big Brother is
Watching".

It covered Australia's role in Echelon with some very interesting
admissions from the DSD and various ex-spooks.

Here's an excerpt from the Web transcript:

  In an unprecedented statement to the Sunday program, the
  director of Australia's Defence Signals Directorate (DSD),
  Martin Brady, reveals what spying the DSD allows on Australian citizens
  and companies. DSD also officially acknowledges for the first time that
  it is a signatory of the hitherto secret UK-USA alliance, that endorses 
  cooperation with counterpart intel ligence organisations in the United
  Kingdom, the US, Canada and New Zealand.
