Documents Unsealed in AT&T Surveillance Case
Tuesday, 30 May 2006

AT&T has set up a secret, secure room for the NSA in at least one of the company's facilities—a room into which AT&T has been diverting its customers' emails and other Internet communications in bulk—according to evidence in key documents partially unsealed today in the Electronic Frontier Foundation's (EFF's) class-action lawsuit against the telecom giant. More on EFF's lawsuit

 

"Now the public can see firsthand the testimony of Mark Klein, a former AT&T employee who was brave enough to step forward and provide evidence of the company's illegal collaboration with the NSA," said EFF Staff Attorney Kevin Bankston. "Today we have released some of the evidence supporting our allegation that AT&T has given the NSA direct access to its fiber-optic network, such that the NSA can read the email of anyone and everyone it chooses—all without a warrant or any court supervision, and in clear violation of the law."
