Abstruse Goose: the Snoopable Internet

|

state_free_packet_filterThis subject is dear to me at the moment:  I’ve been working forever on a short, cheap news story on the National Security Agency.  One thing I’m learning — or I think I’m learning, with this stuff you can’t be sure — is more or less what AG  is saying, that an internet without back doors and side channels is probably not an internet.  Now that I’ve said that, I’m not sure what it means.

I hate this subject.

One thought on “Abstruse Goose: the Snoopable Internet

  1. Backdoors, secret passages, authorized personnel only…Just the infrastructure you need for a Disney World, or _1984_. And how do you keep the bad guys out of the tunnels, and how do you keep the good guys…good?
