AT&T, the NSA and Mark Klein

yes, AT&T and the NSA have been all over the news lately and our ever reliable news media are treating it like it's a revelation... well, guess what, folks... mark klein was the whistle-blower who broke this ugly mess of a story all the way back in - wait for it - 2007, and i started blogging about it almost immediately... now, here we are, almost eight friggin' years later... is it that nobody listens anymore or that folks just don't give a shit...?
