NSA snooping Internet traffic

The ex AT&T employee Klein, says on MSNBC that the NSA have a room at AT&T to network traffic. At the opposite of a famous french blog (I dont want to step in a polemic so I will not put a link here). I believe it is true. For me storage is not an issue because if flickr is able to store 20 000 more photos every hours why the NSA can’t coope with incoming traffic ? I assume that they only kept relevant data e.g not youtube video and of course not the same data twice that’s all. It is also common sense that this room is only for diverting traffic and that the traffic is analyzed and stored directly at the NSA. Since the 11th september, I guess that things are getting more easy for theses guys with the new laws.

Well at the end, it does not change anything as always there is two options

  • Assume that you are watched and just don’t care
  • Assume that you are watched and use crypto
