The BBC says that phone calls were also first tracked in Iraq in 2005 during the surge, and that this technique was then brought to the US in 2006; that would be somehow similar with the story of the Philippines as playground for new surveillance techniques.
looks like a pattern: the trick is introduced in some far away colony where judicial oversight is weaker, in the colonies it turns out to be a big success; the success story is then used to sell the same trick at home.
