What's interesting are old school spy acounstic methods. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Laser_microphone <-- great primer. This played out in micro surface vibration in a cup of coffee in the movie Eagle Eye (terrible movie btw). Either way, kind of a neat way to spy on embassy windows from a far w/o even having to be in the room. A little off topic was the KGB's bugging a government office with passive radio transmission - virtually undetectable http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thing_(listening_device) This stuff is so damn cool. :)
