Interview with National Intelligence Director Mike McConnell
Schneier is reporting that Mike McConnell, U.S. National Intelligence Director, recently gave an interesting interview to the El Paso Times. "I don't think he's ever been so candid before. For example, he admitted that the nation's telcos assisted the NSA in their massive eavesdropping efforts. We already knew this, of course, but the government has steadfastly maintained that either confirming or denying this would compromise national security."

They run IIS behind akamai's Linux connections. That makes their systems fast. But when updating, the info is passed back to their IIS. As such, it was only a matter of time before it was cracked. Crap, do you expect to hear about every Windows box that gets cracked? /. would be /.ed just on those alone.
"U.S. National Intelligence" -- Hmm, isn't that like an oxymoron?

Well, the real reason is that OBL went way over his satphone minutes. Too many text messages. He was real pissed at Cingular (and his son). The whole monitoring thing was just an elaborate way for him to get out of his bill.
Yeah? Well I think you're overrated too.
In the US, there is a trend to avoid this congress/senate confusion and start calling them "defendant."
