[bestbits] Re: [webwewant] Surveillance discovered in Brazil

[Anne Jellema]

Coming on top of revelations about the UK, India, Finland and Germany  -
this really underscores the global nature of the problem. Nothing that
Frank LaRue didn't already warn about, but interesting that so much more is
starting to come to light.

Because Tim B-L is a prominent name in the UK we're likely to get asked for
media comment on the UK spying revelations. This will provide another
opportunity to reinforce key messages agreed on these lists earlier. Also,
if any UK-based organisations want to work on a coordinated response,
please let me know, we'd be keen to contribute.

Cheers
Anne
