Ecuador: Listening Device Found in London Embassy 
--------------------------------------------------


 
Ecuador is claiming it has discovered a hidden listening device at its
embassy in London. A small microphone was reportedly found in its
ambassador's office during a security sweep last month. The Ecuadorean
embassy has been hosting Wiki Leaks founder Julian Assange for over a
year in his bid to avoid extradition to Sweden. The revelations come
days after National Security Agency whistleblower Edward Snowden exposed
widespread U.S. spying on European Union offices and foreign embassies.
