Holy Shit!

WIRED publishes internal AT&T documents showing company sold out customers to the NSA
In 2003 AT&T built "secret rooms" hidden deep in the bowels of its central offices in various cities, housing computer gear for a government spy operation which taps into the company's popular WorldNet service and the entire internet. These installations enable the government to look at every individual message on the internet and analyze exactly what people are doing. Documents showing the hardwire installation in San Francisco suggest that there are similar locations being installed in numerous other cities.

This is HUGE. And just the tip of the iceberg for sure. [AMERICAblog again]
