Possible to verify NK launch ? Is any communication possible ?
by Jason Arnaute 04 Jul '06

04 Jul '06

TV says NK has launched some missiles. If I am not in the Sea of Japan, or in NK, etc., how could I possibly verify that this is true, given the near blackout of information into and out of NK ? I don't want (at least not in this thread) to discuss the possibility that it did not occur, but I _do_ want to discuss the short term and long term mechanisms by which I could decide whether it occurred. Public radar ? Weather radar ? Some tourist on a boat ? Is there any reason to expect that at some point I could make an informed decision about this ? My second question is, does anyone talk to anyone in NK ? Do they have mail ? Do they have phones ? If I want to talk to someone (anyone) in NK, how would I go about this ? Is it completely impossible ? __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Tired of spam? Yahoo! Mail has the best spam protection around http://mail.yahoo.com

Re: Scott Marcus Declaration
by John Young 04 Jul '06

I don't know who else may be working on restoring redactions. Just pick a heavily redacted paragraph or page and post it here, retaining the paragraph number. We're moving very slowly on it. Exhibit A is not identifiable. Based on references by Marcus: Klein Exhibit B appears to be Wired's release of Klein's "Study Group 3, LGX/Splitter Wiring, San Francisco, Issue 1, 12/20/2002." This 4-page excerpt appears to be taken from a longer, 40-page document referred to by Marcus. Klein Exhibit C appears to be Wired's release of Klein's "SIMS, Splitter Cut-In and Test Procedures, Issue 2, 01/13/03." This is a 4-page document. Most of the Klein and ATT documents are in this file: http://cryptome.org/klein-decl.htm Or linked, where we made an earlier stab at restoring Klein's redactions Or the Exhibits B and C can be downloaded at Wired, Ryan Singel's blog. The recent Scott Marcus declaration, as noted earlier, is here: http://cryptome.org/scott-marcus.pdf Klein's statement released through his lawyer is in the Cryptome file as well, or can be downloaded from Wired, Ryan Singel's blog. A lot of the Marcus redactions concern "SG3" and "LGX," with SG3 customarily used with "Configuration." LGX usually refers to the "LGX room" or "LGX/Splitter" project. As Marcus notes, LGX is short for LGX/Splitter. After chewing the bone, it looks as though most of the stuff can be recovered or PG guessed.

HOPE Number Six schedule posted
by Greg Newby 03 Jul '06

03 Jul '06

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE July 3, 2006 CONTACT: press(a)2600.com +1 631 474 2677 2600 Magazine - The Hacker Quarterly is pleased to announce our upcoming conference, HOPE Number Six, taking place in New York from July 21st to 23rd, 2006. HOPE stands for Hackers On Planet Earth, and these conferences have become a gathering point for thousands of computer hackers, phone phreaks, net activists, government spooks, and a whole lot of curious people from all corners of the globe. The HOPE conferences have been running since 1994. HOPE Number Six will bring thousands of hackers together in the middle of Manhattan for three complete days of speakers, demos, videos, and workshops. Conference space in the Hotel Pennsylvania (Seventh Avenue and 32nd Street, across from Penn Station) will be transformed into a nexus for learning about hacker culture and seeing what hackers have been working on lately. HOPE Number Six is open to anyone interested in learning and participating. The conference program includes three packed days of speakers with two main speaker tracks and a third track scheduled on-site. Additional space has been set aside for presentations, demonstrations, and workshops. We will have a variety of vendors at the conference, and the whole space will be connected by a huge computer network with extremely high bandwidth. Highlights include talks by free software pioneer Richard Stallman, former punk rock singer turned spoken word artist Jello Biafra, the former "most dangerous hacker in the world" Kevin Mitnick, Project Gutenberg founder Michael Hart, former CIA operative Robert Steele, and acclaimed private eye Steven Rambam. Over 100 speakers will have presentations on a variety of topics including computer hacking, phone phreaking, legal issues, wiretapping, cryptography, urban exploring, lockpicking, and spying. In addition we will present the return of a favorite panel: social engineering - or how to get sensitive information from people who really ought to know better. A live demonstration of how to do this is planned. Additional talks include how to decode New York City's MetroCard, hacker filmmaking techniques, and even a discussion of hacker cooking. A panel of famous hackers who have gone to prison is also scheduled as is a study of the European hacker scene. And, in a first, there will be a "broadcast" of the WBAI hacker radio show "Off The Hook" in "indecent mode," designed to demonstrate the absurdity of current FCC policies. The New York debut of the Geek Comedy Tour 3000 will also be showcased as will the world premiere of "Urchin," a feature length movie starring several cast members from the hacker world. "The Lost Film Festival," a three hour, culture jamming video showcase will return after being featured at our last conference in 2004. But speakers are only one part of the HOPE conference. Throughout the huge complex, there will be such activities as Segway riding games, a Capture The Flag competition, a showcase of ancient computer systems known as retrocomputing, dramatic demonstrations of what Voice over IP technology is capable of, and an Internet connection faster than any ever seen at a hacker conference in the United States (more than 30 times faster than our last conference). Public terminals will also be on hand for those who don't bring their own computers to tie into the network. Running parallel to the HOPE conference on Saturday afternoon is the Palltech Seminar, an intensive series of talks designed for investigators, private eyes, law enforcement, and anyone else who's interested. All of the speakers from this seminar will also appear at a HOPE panel entitled "Privacy Is Dead - Get Over It." Hackers are curious people who live to learn and share information with others. Periodically, hackers like to meet up with like-minded people to learn from each other. At every HOPE conference, a whole new generation of hackers has been inspired to pursue knowledge and work on creative projects. Non-hackers also come to HOPE and learn from the hackers. New friendships and alliances are formed, and the world is hopefully changed ever so slightly for the better. Each HOPE conference is unique and incorporates new themes. HOPE has changed and grown substantially since the first conference, and this one is going to be different from the previous one. But one thing remains constant: it will be a fun and memorable event.

[Clips] Spy Agency Sought U.S. Call Records Before 9/11, Lawyers Say

Hettinga" <rah(a)shipwright.com> Subject: [Clips] Spy Agency Sought U.S. Call Records Before 9/11, Lawyers Say Reply-To: clips-chat(a)philodox.com Sender: clips-bounces(a)philodox.com <http://www.bloomberg.com/apps/news?pid=20670001&refer=&sid=abIV0cO64zJE> Bloomberg Spy Agency Sought U.S. Call Records Before 9/11, Lawyers Say June 30 (Bloomberg) -- The U.S. National Security Agency asked AT&T Inc. to help it set up a domestic call monitoring site seven months before the Sept. 11, 2001 attacks, lawyers claimed June 23 in court papers filed in New York federal court. The allegation is part of a court filing adding AT&T, the nation's largest telephone company, as a defendant in a breach of privacy case filed earlier this month on behalf of Verizon Communications Inc. and BellSouth Corp. customers. The suit alleges that the three carriers, the NSA and President George W. Bush violated the Telecommunications Act of 1934 and the U.S. Constitution, and seeks money damages. ``The Bush Administration asserted this became necessary after 9/11,'' plaintiff's lawyer Carl Mayer said in a telephone interview. ``This undermines that assertion.'' The lawsuit is related to an alleged NSA program to record and store data on calls placed by subscribers. More than 30 suits have been filed over claims that the carriers, the three biggest U.S. telephone companies, violated the privacy rights of their customers by cooperating with the NSA in an effort to track alleged terrorists. ``The U.S. Department of Justice has stated that AT&T may neither confirm nor deny AT&T's participation in the alleged NSA program because doing so would cause `exceptionally grave harm to national security' and would violate both civil and criminal statutes,'' AT&T spokesman Dave Pacholczyk said in an e-mail. U.S. Department of Justice spokesman Charles Miller and NSA spokesman Don Weber declined to comment. Pioneer Groundbreaker The NSA initiative, code-named ``Pioneer Groundbreaker,'' asked AT&T unit AT&T Solutions to build exclusively for NSA use a network operations center which duplicated AT&T's Bedminster, New Jersey facility, the court papers claimed. That plan was abandoned in favor of the NSA acquiring the monitoring technology itself, plaintiffs' lawyers Bruce Afran said. The NSA says on its Web site that in June 2000, the agency was seeking bids for a project to ``modernize and improve its information technology infrastructure.'' The plan, which included the privatization of its ``non-mission related'' systems support, was said to be part of Project Groundbreaker. Mayer said the Pioneer project is ``a different component'' of that initiative. Mayer and Afran said an unnamed former employee of the AT&T unit provided them with evidence that the NSA approached the carrier with the proposed plan. Afran said he has seen the worker's log book and independently confirmed the source's participation in the project. He declined to identify the employee. Stop Suit On June 9, U.S. District Court Judge P. Kevin Castel in New York stopped the lawsuit from moving forward while the Federal Judicial Panel on Multidistrict Litigation in Washington rules on a U.S. request to assign all related telephone records lawsuits to a single judge. Robert Varettoni, a spokesman for Verizon, said he was unaware of the allegations against AT&T and declined to comment. Earlier this week, he issued a statement on behalf of the company that Verizon had not been asked by the NSA to provide customer phone records from either its hard-wired or wireless networks. Verizon also said that it couldn't confirm or deny ``whether it has any relationship to the classified NSA program.'' Mayer's lawsuit was filed following a May 11 USA Today report that the U.S. government was using the NSA to monitor domestic telephone calls. Earlier today, USA Today said it couldn't confirm its contention that BellSouth or Verizon had contracts with the NSA to provide a database of domestic customer phone call records. Jeff Battcher, a spokesman for Atlanta-based BellSouth, said that vindicated the company. ``We never turned over any records to the NSA,'' he said in a telephone interview. ``We've been clear all along that they've never contacted us. Nobody in our company has ever had any contact with the NSA.'' The case is McMurray v. Verizon Communications Inc., 06cv3650, in the Southern District of New York. -- ----------------- R. A.
