It started out as part of the US's early warning system for ICBM launches in the Soviet Bloc.
It then developed into a key part of the Echelon system and is used for signals intelligence, up to and including private mobile, landline, email and web traffic monitoring. This information is shared between us, them and the Aussies I think.

Marshalled on a stage that ran past Fylingdales a couple of years ago, lots of weird electrical glitches, one of the guys was locked out of his car despite having the key in his hand! On my car the odometer zeroed itself then went back to normal. I thought I had imagined it then it did it again a minute or two later. We also had horrible comms problems all day, the bigger sets wouldnt work at all, only managed any communication with the little handhelds.
Not surprised with Fylingdales...http://www.emcuk.co.uk/awareness/Pages/Interferenc...
