Submission + - AT&T Engineer describing NSA syping architectu 1
juanfe writes: The Washington Post is reporting on the whistleblowing by a former AT&T network engineer who describes how and where AT&T's facilitation of NSA wiretapping was set up. This has been discussed on Slashdot before, but it's a particularly well-explained description for the lay person of why a fiber splitter allowing NSA to sift in all of AT&T's US backhaul traffic (including UUNet, Sprint and GlobalCrossing) is a bad thing.
