Security 09 – NSA Ate My Elf (Part 2 of Many)




inThirty show

Summary: It is that time of the month again, where we need to recap that last few weeks of NSA leaks. First, we tackle the AT&T meta data grab. Basically, no phone calls are private, and there is no expectation of privacy. Then we talk about an interesting story about public wifi where garbage cans are scanning phone signals to determine demographic data. Finally, we discuss how the NSA workers are using their work time to catch terrorists in World of Warcraft.
