An other form of eavesdropping on internet

Here is an article in German,
http://www.heise.de/newsticker/meldung/66673
it describes how 'internet over powerlines' causes interference on
shortwave in Austria.
These radiated signals are thousands of times stronger then the radio signals,
and radio amateurs and broadcasters experience interference.
Of cause it is great for anybody to listen in too.

So, easier then listening in to a video display... If I am correctly
informed 'internet over powerlines' is being used in the US too.

So be aware if you use it, it leaks as ship with holes -titanic-.
