Telecoms operator PCCW (SEHK: 0008) provides anti-eavesdropping service
Telecoms operator PCCW has an anti-eavesdropping service team. Reporters inquired about the service and a staff member revealed the service team, consisting of more than 10 people, was founded more than 10 years ago, originally to serve boss Richard Li Tzar-kai, who needed anti-eavesdropping measures to protect big business deals. The team was later expanded and the service offered to clients such as multinational companies, real-estate developers, casinos and media companies. The staff member said people who wanted to avoid being victims of eavesdropping should use low-end, "non-smart" mobile phones."
