 Brand/names: ENFOPOL und CALEA
 
 Während die ENFOPOL-Überwachungspläne hier zu
 Kontinents in geschlossenen Komitees zwischen den
 Telekoms, ihren Ausrüstern und den gesetzlich ermächtigten
 Behörden klammheimlich standardisiert & ausgemauschelt
 werden - geht es in den USA etwas anders zu.
 
 Dieweil ENFOPOL nur die interne Bezeichnung für alle
 internen Dokumente der EU Police Cooperation Working
 Group ist und weder Vorhaben, noch Gesetz noch eine
 Gruppe bezeichnet, trägt das US-Gegenstück
 [Communications Assistance Law Enforcement Act] nicht
 nur ein eigenes Branding.
 
 Als wären es neue Features für "value added services"
 unterhält man die PR-Website askcalea.net, die über neue
 Implementationen von Abhörmitteln informiert. Dazu gibts
 eine kostenlosen Newsletter, der verwandte Nachrichten aus
 dem Telekombereich zusammenfasst.
