Wired Publishes NSA/AT&T Documents

Bob Aman has the story:

According to Wired, since the gag order applied only to “the EFF, its representatives and its technical experts,� and not to Mark Klein or any of the other news agencies, Wired was free to release the information they had. I’m not a lawyer of course, but I have a funny feeling that AT&T may try to sue anyways.

The interesting part though, is not that Wired released the documents. The interesting part is that, so far as I can tell, Mark Klein’s evidence basically consists of “AT&T installed a Narus STA 6400 in Room 641a.� Which basically doesn’t mean anything unless you know what a Narus STA 6400 is.

Bob knows A LOT about technology, so if you want to know what a Narus STA 6400 is, what it does and why that’s significant, click here.
