It snarfs EVERYTHING from EVERYBODY. Echelon creates a huge database of who talked to who when and what key words were communicated. Analysts can then go back and search for interesting connections.
I keep seeing this random reports of 'if they were listening in on x' etc. Bush gave the green light to the NSA echelon system going domestic. Echelon already snarfed international traffic. It 'listened in' on everyone.
The questions to be asked are not phrased like 'if they were listening in on x', they are phrased like 'who had access to the NSA domestic echelon database', and 'what queries were submitted'.
