The phones are listening!

bob | 26.02.2002 15:54

Is it true that our phones serve a dual use as microphones for the state?

I heard recently through a talk that since the seventies the British phone system has been developed with the capability to listen in to any household in the country with a touchtone phone (just about everyone). The base for this activity was supposed to be Hanington in the home counties. Can anyone shed any futher light/ proof on this matter.
