Mr. Klein is a hero and a patriot in my book.

Whistle-blower AT&T technician Mark Klein says his effort to reveal alleged
government surveillance of domestic Internet traffic was blocked not only
by U.S. intelligence officials but also by the top editors of the Los
Angeles Times.

In his first broadcast interview, which can be seen tonight on World News
and Nightline, Klein describes how he stumbled across "secret NSA rooms"
being installed at an AT&T switching center in San Francisco and later
heard of similar rooms in at least six other cities, including Atlanta, San
Diego, Los Angeles, Palo Alto, San Jose and Seattle.
