From Whistle Blowers:

“A U.S. government office in Quantico, Virginia, has direct, high-speed access to a major wireless carrier’s systems, exposing customers’ voice calls, data packets and physical movements to uncontrolled surveillance, according to a computer security consultant who says he worked for the carrier in late 2003.”

Verizon has a finger pointed at it.

This information I got from Slashdot Review.

Of course, I followed up with a search in Google.

Doesn’t sound good and doesn’t sound like a right to privacy.

The part that gets me the most is the government’s ability to track you. Then again, it has been able to track your cell phone for years. Maybe, this will just get swept under the carpet, forgotten, and/or never mentioned again. I’m assuming we will hear nothing of this again.
