Yahoo.com is allegedly spying on its customers and acting as a proxy for U.S. law enforcement and intelligence agencies.

According to Wired.com, Yahoo also charges the agencies for the information. That means U.S. citizens' tax dollars are being used by federal agencies to pay for information gathered in Yahoo's spying.

Yahoo.com is allegedly spying on its customers and acting as a proxy for U.S. law enforcement and intelligence agencies.

According to Wired.com, Yahoo also charges the agencies for the information. That means U.S. citizens' tax dollars are being used by federal agencies to pay for information gathered in Yahoo's spying.

A Yahoo customer who asked not to be identified became suspicious of Yahoo's operations when the image below appeared on his screen while downloading his e-mail.

John Young, who runs the website http://www.cryptome.org/ , believes the Internet giant is gathering data from customer e-mails for possible disclosure to U. S. law enforcement and intelligence agencies.

Young says Yahoo has a standard operating procedure for e-mail data mining spelled out in the Yahoo Law Enforcement Compliance Manual. Young has posted a copy of Yahoo's manual on his Cryptome.com website.

Yahoo and its Washington, D.C.-based legal counsel, Steptoe and Johnson, have not responded to WND requests for comment

The manual says Yahoo records the IP address of any computer involved in a Yahoo e-mail exchange.

"Every message sent by a Yahoo! mail user contains the originating IP address in the header," the Yahoo manual says. "That is, Yahoo! records the IP address of the computer that was used to send the email, and Yahoo! inserts that IP address in the header of the message. Accordingly, if law enforcement is seeking to determine the IP address from which a Yahoo! e-mail was sent, Yahoo! will have no additional information other than what is visible in the message itself."

The manual continues.

"The relevant line from the header will generally look like this: Received: from [65.207.97.120] by web41705.mail.yahoo.com via HTTP; Fri, 05 Sep 2003 07:30:05 PDT

"In this example, the IP address in brackets corresponds to the computer from which the message was sent," the manual states.

Section V of the Yahoo compliance guide says:

"Yahoo! generally will accept service of court orders, search warrants, and criminal grand jury or administrative subpoenas for the production of documents by fax from government entities."
Then there's this paragraph a few lines later in the same section:

"Yahoo! will ask law enforcement to certify that the prior or delayed notice provisions have been satisfied if contents are sought with legal process other than a Search Warrant."

"…with legal process other than a Search Warrant."
An intelligence analyst and private terrorism investigator who asked not to be named, believes this phrase is key in Yahoo's willingness to turn over e-mail contents to U.S. intelligence agencies.

Young stands by his actions and what he has written about Yahoo's surveillance. He believes the public material may be a diversion for deeper surveillance.

"What remains unclear is what are other arrangements between Yahoo and law enforcement and intelligence agencies that are not covered by publicly available material. It is more than probable that the publicly available material diverts attention from these other shenanigans," Young observes.

He adds that other Internet providers are also involved in surveillance.

"Yahoo is not alone in these customer transgressions, the deceptive practices are widespread among telecommunications and IP providers," Young asserts.

A story on Mathaba.net states, "Cox Communications, SBC, Cingular, Nextel, GTE and other telecoms and Internet service providers," or ISPs, are involved in federally sanction data collection.

Young also believes media haven't done a good job reporting the abuses.

"There's an abysmal neglect of what the ISPs, OS (operating system) producers, network operators, data farmers and search engines are up to with customer data displayed on the computer screen."

Yahoo's legal counsel, Steptoe and Johnson, has contacted Young, acknowledging the compliance guide's existence and how it facilitates Yahoo's participation in intelligence and law enforcement investigations.

The letter posted on Cryptome.org reads.

The letter concludes with a threat of legal action.

The series of letters is posted on the www.Cryptome.org website. "

Yes No Real Surprise that Big Money, Political Games, and the Power Elite pay Yahoo to give them what they want to know. The Internet .. everything you say and do is tracked, either to Watch You, or to create a data base to Sell you Something.. oh Well...

I have Read the Yahoo Law Enforcement Manual above and well it is a No Brainer to get this information, should your attorney not fear local law enforcement.

It is EASY to prove where emails REALLY come from, this is EASY technical though many make it seem so intensely complex for their own personal game and to Hide their Lies. However you get one of the Power Elite that Wants that information and you have it in minutes.

SO Never think that your emails are Private, they just are not. And when you talk about how you feel online, good or bad don't hide your identity just be proud of your stance and talk as intelligently as you can about your point of view or reasons why.

Suing Yahoo... not sure if that will work when Big Money and the Power Elite Control the Courts as Well, adn google is no better, just be Out There with your Truth, don't hide. I mean come on wasn't Google at this Years Bilderberg meeting.. Come On ..

Just Simply Say what you Mean - Mean What you Say and For Goodness Sake put your name to it... How proud can you be of what you say or how sure of yourself are you if your Anonymous about it?
