Voip-Pal.com Inc. (“Voip-Pal”, “Company”) (OTC Pink: VPLM) announces
that its patented Lawful Intercept Technology (U.S. Patent No.
8,422,507) could solve the major challenges associated with the current
U.S. Government’s NSA surveillance program. In recent months, it has
come to light that the NSA has been accumulating all forms of data and
communications in a very broad surveillance program, causing major
concerns regarding potential violations of privacy. Since the attacks on
American soil of September 11, 2001, the threat of global terrorism has
prompted the need for increased surveillance in order to intercept and
thwart potential terror plots. As a result, Voip-Pal believes the United
States Government has had no other option but to have the NSA launch a
broad and blanketed approach to surveillance by collecting personal data
and communications from all citizens, resulting in much concern from
privacy advocates and greater distrust in the government among its
citizens. Now with the provision of Lawful Intercept through Voip-Pal,
the Company feels that it has provided a better alternative which
creates a method of more strategically targeted surveillance without the
need to monitor communications from the public at large, keeping
peoples’ privacy intact.
Lawful Intercept technology will provide the U.S. and other world
governments a much more effective and totally stealth method of legally
intercepting all forms of VoIP communications including SKYPE, Vonage,
Magic Jack, as well as VoIP to landline calls. Until the USPTO’s
approval of Voip-Pal’s Lawful Intercept patent earlier this year, there
was not an effective means of stealthily intercepting communications
from specific pinpointed suspects, resulting instead in the current
blanket approach of gathering information from the population at large.
Lawful Intercept will allow for government agencies to pinpoint their
surveillance to specific criminal and terrorist suspects only, without
the need for the widespread collection of data. Lawful Intercept is a
real time means of intercepting communications that is designed to be an
invaluable tool in providing for national security and assisting law
enforcement agencies to prevent terrible tragedies like the Boston
Marathon bombing and Mumbai Massacre.
