Researchers at the University of Pennsylvania say they’ve discovered a way to circumvent the networking technology used by law enforcement to tap phone lines in the U.S. The researchers say the flaws they’ve found “represent a serious threat to the accuracy and completeness of wiretap records used for both criminal investigation and as evidence in trial” They say they could flood the network with calls and SMS messages to make sure law enforcement records are accurate. The techniques would work on mobile phones or VoIP systems, but not on analog devices, the researchers say.”]
