THE BALLS OF BIG BROTHER


The picture was sent by Valerie who writes…

“This is RAF Menwith Hill, North Yorkshire and these golfball-like radomes are on a site owned by the UK government, but administrative and logistical responsibility for the world's largest electronic monitoring station lie with the US Air Force. International telecommunications, including telephone calls, faxes and emails, are intercepted and monitored at this site. Sensitive information is passed on to US government agencies and the UK's Government Communications Headquarters, GCHQ. In 2007, the UK government agreed that the site could become part of the US missile defence system. And never trust those sheep.”
