AT&T Whistleblower NSA Documents

Posted by Eric at 11:04 am. Filed under: War / Terrorism

If you haven’t seen ‘em yet, check out the documents that Wired News has posted.

Here we present Klein’s statement in its entirety, with inline links to all of the document excerpts where he cited them. You can also download the complete file here (pdf). The full AT&T documents are filed under seal in federal court in San Francisco.

Subsequently, Wired explains why they are publishing these documents which were under a limited court seal.

Based on what we’ve seen, Wired News disagrees. In addition, we believe the public’s right to know the full facts in this case outweighs AT&T’s claims to secrecy.

As a result, we are publishing the complete text of a set of documents from the EFF’s primary witness in the case, former AT&T employee and whistle-blower Mark Klein — information obtained by investigative reporter Ryan Singel through an anonymous source close to the litigation. The documents, available on Wired News as of Monday, consist of 30 pages, with an affidavit attributed to Klein, eight pages of AT&T documents marked “proprietary,” and several pages of news clippings and other public information related to government-surveillance issues.

The court’s gag order is very specific in barring only the EFF, its representatives and its technical experts from discussing and disseminating this information. The court explicitly rejected AT&T’s motion to include Klein in the gag order and declined AT&T’s request to force the EFF to return the documents.

Wired’s conclusion?

This is the infrastructure for an Orwellian police state. It must be shut down!

  1. Wired is just stating the obvious: people’s privacy matters!

    I’m afraid the scope of the creep inside our private lives by the NSA is astouding and we’re just starting to see how deep the rabbit hole is going.

    Think about the gazillions of networked cameras everywhere we go, the number of e-breadcrumbs we leave when surfing the web, the number of places our names and related profiles are floating around with new employees suddenly having access to this bonanza of otherwise private information about us.

    Privacy needs to be brought back as THE priority to defend our democratic way of life.
