"The paper said that frames from encrypted networks were discarded by
gslite. Unencrypted bodies were written straight to disc, but not parsed by
the program.

Privacy International believe this represents criminal intent - data
protection law does not normally allow the interception of communications in
this way.

PI said: "This action by Google cannot be blamed on the alleged 'single
engineer' who wrote the code. It goes to the heart of a systematic failure
of management and of duty of care."
