Doc Edward Morbius ⭕In Memoriam: Mark Klein, AT&T Whistleblower Who Revealed NSA Mass Spying<blockquote>[W]hat Mark told us changed everything. Through his work, Mark had learned that the National Security Agency (NSA) had installed a secret, secure room at AT&T’s central office in San Francisco, called Room 641A. Mark was assigned to connect circuits carrying Internet data to optical “splitters” that sat just outside of the secret NSA room but were hardwired into it. Those splitters—as well as similar ones in cities around the U.S.—made a copy of all data going through those circuits and delivered it into the secret room.</blockquote><a href="https://www.eff.org/deeplinks/2025/03/memoriam-mark-klein-att-whistleblower-about-nsa-mass-spying" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank">https://www.eff.org/deeplinks/2025/03/memoriam-mark-klein-att-whistleblower-about-nsa-mass-spying</a>Klein provided one of the pre-Snowden disclosures of massive communications surveillance in the United States.

Hippasus500 aka jwn2We’re reading “the Sirens’ Call” by MSNBC commentator Chris Hayes. The book brings together several themes that interest me: the evils of <a href="https://federate.social/tags/surveillancecapitalism" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#surveillancecapitalism</a>; disinformation on <a href="https://federate.social/tags/socialmedia" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#socialmedia</a>; <a href="https://federate.social/tags/privacy" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#privacy</a> rights; and how our personal freedom is harmed by abuses in these areas.He quotes Phaedrus, a book I’ve always meant to read since encountering it in Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance decades ago.
