Does this make you mad? Someone did something about it (Part II).

In a followup to my recent blog entry regarding our three major phone providers selling out their customers in the name of “national security,” I am glad to report that Verizon has been sued for five billion dollars in a lawsuit filed on Friday.

While this lawsuit may very well be thrown out, or if not will be appealed into oblivion. Despite this, I can only hope that some other legal firm takes the reins and sues BellSouth and AT&T. We need to send a message to the government and to our corporations that we won’t tolerate this widespread invasion of privacy in the name of “national security.”
