AT&T whistleblower comes to DC

Mark Klein's story is one of the most under-reported aspects of the NSA wiretapping scandal - so it's good to see that he's finally getting a forum with lawmakers and the national media, especially now that Congress is debating a bill which would shield telecoms from liability in suits over privacy violations. Klein is the former AT&T technician who alleges that the telecom built a secret room to host NSA data-mining equipment in its San Francisco switching center. WIRED broke the story, and has been one of the only major media outlets to give it the coverage it deserves.
