I'm in the middle of reading Richard Aldrich's book on GCHQ - which I thought might be a bit dry but is actually completely fascinating.
Sigint is a remarkably devious business e.g. during the Falkland's War the UK got live information on Argentinian ship locations from, of all places, Norwegian intelligence who obtained it by hacking into Soviet spy satellites.
- cryptonector 7y agoI'd like to read about that! Is that described in the book you mentioned, or elsewhere? The UK also got early warning of air attacks from Chilean radar installations in Tierra del Fuego or thereabouts.
- arethuza 7y agoYes - that was from that book.
