Abby and Robbie Martin interview former AT&T technician and whistleblower Mark Klein about his experience exposing AT&T’s cataloging and duplication of private user data for the NSA, and why every American should be concerned about private sector surveillance. Mark goes into his personal history of being an anti-war activist during the Vietnam War and how it led to his distrust of the two party system. He also discusses NSA whistleblower Edward Snowden’s leaks and the journalists distributing them.
