	Bush Lets U.S. Spy on Callers Without Courts
		The previously undisclosed decision to permit some eavesdropping inside the country without court approval was a major shift in American intelligence-gathering practices, particularly for the National Security Agency, whose mission is to spy on communications abroad.
		The eavesdropping program grew out of concerns after the Sept. 11 attacks that the nation's intelligence agencies were not poised to deal effectively with the new threat of Al Qaeda and that they were handcuffed by legal and bureaucratic restrictions better suited to peacetime than war, according to officials.
		Since 2002, the agency has been conducting some warrantless eavesdropping on people in the United States who are linked, even if indirectly, to suspected terrorists through the chain of phone numbers and e-mail addresses, according to several officials who know of the operation.

	Behind the Eavesdropping Story, a Loud Silence - New York Times
		At the outset, it's essential to acknowledge the far-reaching importance of the eavesdropping article's content to Times readers and to the rest of the nation.
		Keller seems to be contending that the sourcing for the eavesdropping article is so intertwined with the decisions about when and what to publish that a full explanation could risk revealing the sources.
		That point was hard to ignore when the explanation in the article referred rather vaguely to having "delayed publication for a year." To me, this language means the article was fully confirmed and ready to publish a year ago - after perhaps weeks of reporting on the initial tip - and then was delayed.

		In 1990, the Illinois appeals court ruled that police scanners are not eavesdropping devices when used to overhear cellular telephone conversations, and a 1994 opinion of the attorney general indicates that the state does not consider it eavesdropping to tape-record cellular or cordless telephone conversations received on a police scanner.
		Eavesdropping is a misdemeanor; interception is a felony.

		Laser eavesdropping systems operating in the near-infrared region use lasers which radiate an invisible beam with a wavelength somewhere between 700 and 1550 nanometers (nm).The reflected beam is received by either a silicon photodetector operating between 400 nm and 1100 nm or an indium gallium arsenide photodetector operating between 800 nm and 1700 nm.
		To use a laser eavesdropping system to monitor a conversation, the eavesdropper simply points the laser eavesdropping system laser at a window of the room in which the target conversation is occurring and illuminates the surface.
		Laser eavesdropping systems are covert, readily available, effective, and completely undetectable by standard anti-bugging devices and procedures and as such represent a new dimension in the assault on privacy.

	Eavesdropping, Gagging, and the Constitution - by Ray McGovern
		But it was a legal play authorized by the 1978 legislation out of concern that this valuable eavesdropping tool not be lost to intelligence officials charged with protecting U.S. national security.
		To ensure as much as possible that constitutional protections would not be jeopardized, the 1978 law gave the government permission to eavesdrop on Americans only with a warrant from a special court set up for that purpose (the FISA court).
		At the same time, in recognition of the occasional need for intelligence officers to act quickly, the law specifically allows eavesdropping on U.S. citizens for 72 hours before a warrant must be sought.

	Optical Emission Security FAQ
		The eavesdropped videosignal is periodic over at least a few seconds, therefore periodic averaging over a few hundred frames can help significantly to reduce the noise.
		Optical eavesdropping is somewhat more restricted in that for the diffuse reflection case, low background illumination is essential to make it work, but on the other hand it leads usually to much better image quality and works not only for text but also for colour images.
		Compromising emanations: eavesdropping risks of computer displays is currently perhaps the most detailed openly available compendium on electromagnetic eavesdropping techniques for video displays.

	Eavesdropping in the Novel from Austen to Proust
		Arguing that eavesdropping has never been adequately studied as an integral part of narrative, Gaylin suggests that scenes of eavesdropping in these novels draw attention to the basic drives of their narrative structure.
		Marian Holcombe’s eavesdropping on the conspiracies of Count Fosco and Sir Percival helps free her cousin Laurie Fairlie but also leads to Marian’s illness, the “narrative rape” of her diary, and her eventual silencing as primary narrator.
		Awareness of the concentrated and localized presence of eavesdropping in the nineteenth-century novel is critical, Gaylin argues, not only for its own sake but for the sake of twenty-first century narrators and those whose lives they narrate.

		Echelon was a system for mass eavesdropping on communications around the world by the NSA and its allies among the intelligence agencies of other nations.
		ECHELON was known to use numerous satellite receivers ("dishes") – located on the east and west coasts of the United States, in England, Australia, Germany, and elsewhere around the globe – to vacuum up the "spillover" broadcasts from these satellite transmissions.

		Of course the eaves of the house is the edge of the roof that overhangs the side.

		One's views of warrantless eavesdropping ought to have nothing to do with one's views of the President's false and misleading statements on this issue.
		There were numerous public discussions about the Administration's eavesdropping activities, the most detailed and revealing of which were from President Bush as he campaigned for re-election, and the Senate itself, both in 2001 and 2002, was openly debating what standards ought to govern FISA.

	MW2002: Papers: Eavesdropping on Electronic Guidebooks: Observing Learning Resources in Shared Listening Environments
		Visitor activity was structured very differently with eavesdropped audio than with open air audio. The new structure had a lower coordination cost, demanding less attention. The decreased attention burden was reflected in the visitors’ interactions.
		When using mutual eavesdropping, visitors responded more fully to audio descriptions. Visitors were also more likely to discuss features of the object not mentioned in the description or to discuss objects that were not described in the guidebook at all.
		With mutually eavesdropped audio, the examination of objects was more frequently occasioned by their presence in the room rather than their presence in the guidebook. Once visitors began to examine an object, they might discuss it or play a description of it if one were available.

		A SURVEILLANCE program approved by President George Bush to conduct eavesdropping without court warrants has captured what are purely domestic communications in some cases, despite a requirement by the White House that one end of the intercepted conversations take place on foreign soil, officials say.
		Eavesdropping on communications between two people who are both inside the US is prohibited under Mr Bush's order allowing some domestic surveillance.
		But in at least one instance, someone using an international mobile phone was mistakenly thought to be outside the US when in fact both people in the conversation were in the country.
