New Details Filed on NSA "Secret Rooms"
New Details Filed on NSA "Secret Rooms"

Brian Ross and Vic Walter Report:

New details on "secret rooms" allegedly established inside an AT&T switching center in San Francisco have been made public in a sworn affidavit filed in court by a former AT&T employee, Mark Klein.

......................

According to the heavily-redacted eight page document, the NSA equipment is able to divert "the contents of all the electronic voice and data communications" moving through the AT&T facility.

Klein was briefly given access to the room, which he says the NSA installed in 2002.

Klein describes the AT&T facility as "one of the largest internet switching points in the United States."
