ADDIS ABABA - A new report from Human Rights Watch says Ethiopia
is using some of the world's most advanced surveillance software
to monitor communications from Ethiopians at home and abroad.
Human Rights Watch says that the Ethiopian government is spying
on its citizens and monitoring the activities of Ethiopians in
the diaspora by using high tech software from China, Italy and
Germany.
Felix Horne is the Horn of Africa researcher with the
international human rights organization. He says the Ethiopian
government has unlimited access to records of phone calls and
emails of Ethiopians at home and abroad:
"Inside Ethiopia, its control of its Chinese developed telecom
system results in having unfettered access to phone records

"Inside Ethiopia, its control of its Chinese developed telecom
system results in having unfettered access to phone records and
metadata of all phone calls in the country," he said. "Outside
the country, they are using western-made technology to target the
activities of very specific members of the diaspora. These
technologies are being provided by a company in Italy, called
HackingTeam and a company in Germany called Gamma."
Ethiopia's telecommunication is monopolized by the state-owned
Ethio Telecom. A sim card can only be obtained in Ethiopia after
registering personal details, making it easy for the government
to identify domestic callers, according to Human Rights Watch.
A U.S. citizen of Ethiopian origin filed a lawsuit against the
Ethiopian government last month, saying his computer had been
hacked and he had been spied on for more than four months.
Horne says that certain ethnic groups feel particularly at risk
when answering phone calls from abroad.
He says, "One of the things that we found in our research is that
individuals that receive phone calls from abroad are often
targeted and accused of talking to banned organizations or of
plotting something against the government, despite there being
little evidence to that effect."
Getachew Redda, an adviser to Ethiopia's prime minister, denies
the Human Rights Watch report. He says the group has "made it a
habit to accuse Ethiopia of almost everything that goes wrong in
the region" and it has a "negative knee-jerk reaction about any
developments in the country."
He adds that the government "would not waste resources in
eavesdropping conversations of opposition figures" and that the
accusations are "pure hogwash."

get of the synchronization very very difficult, in spite of working
RSID -
several attempts necessary.
while the existing synchronization no
errors.
right in the middle suddenly loss of
synchronization |
get of
the synchronization easy,
despite moderate bandwidth no mistake - as expected.
MFSK32 still known as solid
safe digital communication
mode
- my
personal winner -
but perhaps is
MT63-1000L something more robust for the way to Japan
or New Zealand
- we will see it, I'm curious
