Does anybody knowanything about this? Shouldn't every country have a hotline like this? Should it be organized by trade organizations? gr eveline buro Jansen & Janssen

Wiretap legal hotline established
TRADE ORGANIZATIONS REPRESENTING most of the world's largest Internet backbone operators and service providers have established a hotline where operators can get legal advice when they receive U.S. federal government wiretap requests. Callers to the hotline will be referred to independent lawyers experienced in electronic surveillance and law enforcement issues, the organizations said in a joint statement Wednesday. The hotline will be established by the Commercial Internet eXchange (CIX) and Internet Service Providers' Consortium (ISP/C), which have announced plans to combine their operations, and the ISP Business Forum.
