Interesting, an AT&T data and transfer hub. Similar to the Nashville 12/25/2020 explosion at an NSA/AT&T data and transfer hub. I see a pattern here.
Didn't Assange recently post about "If the NSA or FBI wanted to find the "lost LFH, they need look no further than 33 Thomas St."?
Probably the impetus for this post.
Hardly hidden in plain sight. If there was an Auschwitz concentration camp in the middle of the city…
This goes back a lot longer. The earliest of American SIGINT agencies, The Black Chamber, was founded in the early 1900s and was used to spy on the League of Nations conference in San Francisco. It is the grandfather of CIA and NSA. They had standing relationships and back doors w the telegraph and early telephone companies.
I drove past the old AT&T building in Dallas last year and could see all sorts of symbols on the exterior just at a quick glance as I drove past in a U-Haul truck - which didn’t enable me to look at it as long as I wanted!
Any symbols on the sterile of this building?
And thinking on AT&T and Bell Labs. Anyone done any research into Linus Torvalds (of Linux and Git fame)? Wiki is also saying Android inventor.
