“I asked someone who had worked at Tailored Access Operations [the NSA’s black bag division], ‘I’m in your cubicle at work; what am I seeing?’ and he said, ‘I’m sitting at a monitor, and I’m typing code. And behind me is a supervisor, and behind him is a lawyer, and they’re taking down all of my keystrokes.'”<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

\"dtcover\"<\/a>Fred Kaplan<\/a> rejoins the show to talk about his new book, Dark Territory: The Secret History of Cyber War<\/a>\"\" (Simon & Schuster). (We last talked in 2013<\/a>). We get into the tangled, wild-west story of how cyber warfare is waged, where it might go in future, and why it’s the ultimate asymmetric warfare. Fred also tells us about the role of cyber in the success of the Iraq surge, the story of Stuxnet, the problem with not having rules of engagement for cyber war,\u00a0how he came to respect the NSA, the statist\/libertarian divide at the core of encryption battles,\u00a0and what he thinks of Edward Snowden.\u00a0Give it a listen!<\/a>\u00a0And go buy Fred’s book, Dark Territory<\/a>\"\"!<\/p>\n

“In the US, privacy has become a quaint notion.”<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Then Charles Bivona<\/a> joins us for his\u00a0monthly installment of #NJPoet’s Corner<\/em>, where we focus on his dream course: Batman Studies. Go listen<\/a>! And buy #NJPoet<\/a>, Chuck’s newly-published poetry collection!
