Two European companies — a major contractor to the U.S. government and a top cell-phone equipment maker — last year installed an electronic surveillance system for Iran that human rights advocates and intelligence experts say can help Iran target dissidents. Nokia Siemens Networks (NSN), a joint venture between the Finnish cell-phone giant Nokia and German powerhouse Siemens, delivered what is known as a monitoring center to Irantelecom, Iran's state-owned telephone company. A spokesman for NSN said the servers were sold for "lawful intercept functionality," a technical term used by the cell-phone industry to refer to law enforcement's ability to tap phones, read e-mails and surveil electronic data on communications networks.

Remember Nokia and Siemens story?

by peace45 on

In a joint venture, Nokia and Siemens help Islamic Republic of Iran install leading technology surveillance systems, on the other hand the joint venture sponsors World Wildlife Fund to save animals. These criminal collaborators confirm that Iranian people are not only facing the Islamic fascists at home, we also have foreign enemies that have more concerns about animals' welfare than for human beings.
