Pine Gap in Australia is well known where it is, it is well guarded, it is also known that we never get told what it costs us, never get a referendum if we still want it. I have been rather perplexed to read that echelon is tasked with industrial espionage although we heavily criticise China for doing just that. There are locations in neighbourhoods where you wonder about things which only make sense if they are an eavesdropping facility. Looking around is all you need to do. I wanted to have a look here whether the current war on Huawei could be due to them not having a backdoor for echelon.

Located by The Westfield Shopping Center,(aka. Vancouver Mall. The approximate location of the mall is 45°39′29″N 122°35′1″W) After I saw that the man driving wanted to make contact with myself I slowly approached the vehicle to find a very polite man and asked him if there was anything that i could help him with. We spoke for several minutes and as he handed me some hand sanitizer to help out with my hygeine problem( Due to Being a transient individual) I asked who he was employed with and what the symbol on his uniform was for.</dd> <dd>The reply that I received was that he was employed through Echelon. I had remembered hearing this name while being a young child back in the early 1990's but could not remember what it was about.</dd> <dd>To be 100% honest I am homeless in Vancouver washington with absolutely ZERO advocacy for the problems that I have been facing. I feel this is in part because of the conspiracy theories that I have going through my head. So my name is Christopher Mark Rew D.O.B Wed,October 4th 1989 at 12:04a.m. and I was born in Memorial hospital on main st. in Vancouver, Washington.</dd> <dd>After using reasonable deduction I have come to a finalized conclusion that I have been a Target for many different things. From the time that I was born until my 34 years of age currently I believe that there are Human individuals, along with other more magnificent creatures of this world that have managed to time travel and have wound up "lost in space" if you will. I feel like our "WINCO" area ( Washington, Idaho, Nevada, Colorado,and Oregon) have been a controlled variable in this equation. I have been implemented into the Watergate Scandal through Bonneville dam being blown in 2007 to help with washing away a mistake that the "God Particle" helped to produce. Van-alco where my grandfather was employed while i was a child had been fined with a 76 billion dollar fine for poluting the columbia river during production.
