Documents unveiled in a lawsuit that privacy advocates filed against AT&T Inc. contain allegations from a former AT&T technician that the company allowed the National Security Agency to install equipment capable of examining "every individual message" on the Internet. In the documents, published yesterday by Wired.com, Mark Klein, the former AT&T employee, offers technical explanations for how the NSA may have tapped into AT&T's network by installing hardware in secret rooms at the company's San Francisco office and elsewhere.
