"A British satellite enthusiast who stumbled across images of surveillance 
pictures taken by spy planes over the Balkans tried to warn NATO and U.S. 
military officials that the images could be watched by anyone with basic 
equipment.

John Locker said he stumbled across the images, which were beamed over an 
insecure satellite link and were not encrypted, in November.

Major Bill Bigelow, a spokesman for the U.S. European Command in Germany, 
said the images did not constitute intelligence."

He added that they constitute stupidity.
