...as opposed to intercepting telephone communications. I understand what this means but do not know how to phrase it. "Environmental communications interception" would be pretty ridiculous. "Room" or "background tapping" are better but there must be a proper term out there? I have looked it up on the net but everything seems related to the internet.
Thanks for your help.

bugging
Hi Helen
According to the "Associazione Nazionale dei Traduttori e degli Interpreti del Ministero dell'Interno":
http://www.antimi.org/
intercettazione telefonica:
wiretapping / telephone surveillance
intercettazione ambientale:
electronic surveillance
BUT:
http://www.answers.com/topic/electronic-surveillance-2
Three types of *electronic surveillance* are most prevalent: wire tapping, bugging, and videotaping. Wire tapping intercepts telephone calls and telegraph messages by physically penetrating the wire circuitry. Someone must actually "tap" into telephone or telegraph wires to accomplish this type of surveillance. Bugging is accomplished without the aid of telephone wires, usually by placing a small microphone or other listening device in one location to transmit conversations to a nearby receiver and recorder. Video surveillance is performed by conspicuous or hidden cameras that transmit and record visual images that may be watched simultaneously or reviewed later on tape.

Con il termine “intercettazione ambientale ” ci si riferisce a registrazioni attuate tramite l’inserimento di microfoni di dimensioni riddottissime, comunemente denominati microspie, nei luoghi di residenza, di lavoro o in generale di frequentazione degli indagati. Le microspie captano le conversazioni e le ritrasmettono nelle immediate vicinanze o, tramite linea telefonica, in un qualsiasi luogo collegato, dove il segnale viene registrato.

Thank you, Linda. You always seem to have the right answer! I checked electronic surveillance and found: http://www.nolo.com/definition.cfm/Term/781C64DB-3EA5-4C80-B76DFE8E98DA2996/alpha/E/ - Along with numerous other sources - GREAT! Thank you! |

ciao Paola, mi sa che hai ragione, ho azzardato un po' troppo; chiedo scusa a Helen

I understand the suggested expression reflects the original meaning.
