http://www.libertythink.com/vox.htm

"At 10 oclock this morning (Dec 13) Approximately 40 agents from a joint group of CIA, FBI, And Major Crimes unit. Surrounded my home on Long Island New York (I was not there) and entered and proceeded to conduct a thorough search and removal operation while detaining a tennant who occupuys an apartment on the premises. I am in contact with my counsel (from NYCLU) NY Civil Liberties Union. (Norm Seigel)

I will try to make a further update tommorrow. As for now I wish someone could archive as many of the articles on my voxnyc.com site as possible. I apologize for such a brief note but it has been a terrible moment and I am literally on the run. I do not wish this information to be released until after I have suitable time to consult with my counsul maybe a day or two.

Thank you

The Foreign Office is conducting an urgent mole hunt to find out how confidential documents are being leaked on to the internet. A secret memo describing meetings between a senior aide to Vladimir Putin, the Russian president, and British security chiefs is the latest to appear on an American website, causing intense embarrassment to Whitehall officials. The memorandum describes highly sensitive meetings between Sergei Ivanov, now the Russian defence minister, and security chiefs at the Foreign Office, Downing Street, the Cabinet Office and the Ministry of Defence. Details of discussions about defence, terrorism and drug trafficking are described in the document.

-- Nicholas Rufford and John Elliott, Mole hunt at Foreign Office to find internet leaker, December 22, 2002

The FCO-Ivanov memo:

http://cryptome.org/fco-ivanov.htm

Top republican terrorist exposed in court documents as a special forces soldier.

He was one of the most feared men inside the Provisional IRA. To rank-and-file 'volunteers', a knock on the door from John Joe Magee was the equivalent of a visit from the Angel of Death.

However, court documents leaked to the Sunday Herald show that Magee, head of the IRA's infamous 'internal security unit', was trained as a member of Britain's special forces. The IRA's 'torturer-in-chief' was in reality one of the UK's most elite soldiers.

The documents, lodged as part of a court action being taken against the British government by a disgruntled military intelligence agent, name Magee as a 'former member of the Special Boat Squadron'.

15   Q    What type of events did you observe taking 
16   place at the DEFCON conference?
17   A    In various conference rooms had presentations 
18   being given.  There was also some flea market of 
19   sorts with T-shirts and different computer items 
20   for sale.  There also was a game, king of the hill 
21   type of game for hackers where the different 
22   attendees were attempting to gain control of the 
23   computer and it was a sort of competition taking 
24   place throughout the resort.
25   Q    And did you observe any evidence that at least 
                                                                     6
 1   some of the individuals at DEFCON were cognizant of 
 2   law enforcement's potential presence at the 
 3   conference?
 4   A    This was a game that they played throughout 
 5   the conference called spot the fed where -- it was 
 6   a lighthearted game where they attempted to 
 7   identify whether one attendee or another was an FBI 
 8   agent or a federal officer.  And I was present 
 9   while that was played on one occasion.
10   Q    Did they identify you as a federal officer?
11   A    No, they didn't.
12   Q    Now, did you observe any speeches given at the 
13   Elcomsoft conference?
14   A    I observed the Elcomsoft presentation.
15   Q    And generally what was the Elcomsoft 
16   presentation?
17   A    It was primarily a presentation about the 
18   Elcomsoft eBook Reader and eBook security in 
19   general.
20   Q    Who gave that presentation?
21   A    That was Mr. Dmitry Sklyarov.
22   Q    What language did he give it in?
23   A    English.
24   Q    Did Mr. Sklyarov indicate whether Elcomsoft 
25   was distributing the Advanced eBook Processor 
                                                                     7
 1   program?
 2   A    He was -- he indicated that they had 
 3   distributed it or were selling it, but they were 
 4   now giving out a demonstration version while at the 
 5   conference.
 6   Q    And what date was the conference?
 7   A    I believe it was July 15th, 2001.
 8   Q    Did Mr. Sklyarov indicate whether Elcomsoft 
 9   had been selling the program?
10   A    I believe he said they had priced it at $100.  
11   He may have stated that they were not selling it at 
12   that time.
13   Q    Did he indicate that they had been selling it?
14   A    I think he did.
15   Q    Did Mr. Sklyarov demonstrate the program?
16   A    He did.
17   Q    Did Mr. Sklyarov indicate whether the program 
18   would remove all protections from an electronic 
19   book?
20   A    He gave a demonstration in which he showed 
21   that that, in fact, happens with the program.
22   Q    Now, during this conference did you regard 
23   yourself as being undercover?
24   A    Yes.
25   Q    And did you wear a recorder or any kind of 
                                                                     8
 1   recording device?
 2   A    Yes, I wore a recording device.
 3   Q    Now, at any point during the conference either 
 4   before or after Mr. Sklyarov's speech did you have 
 5   an opportunity to speak with him in person?
 6   A    I did.
 7   Q    And how did that occur?
 8   A    He welcomed questions from the attendees at 
 9   the conclusion of his speech at which point I went 
10   up and engaged him in conversation.
