IT and telecommunications surveillance equipment (quintessenz, link)

"A collection of network monitoring and datamining suites made by Nokia Siemens, Ericsson, Verint and others. All systems are compliant to ETSI and CALEA "lawful interception" standards, the vendors themselves are involved in the standardization. While the official name of the game is still "lawful interception" these suites perform "high speed government surveillance". From Iran to China "intelligence platforms" and "monitoring centers" are used to track down the democratic opposition, dissidents, ethnic and religious minorities. The vendors are mostly European and US companies."
