Re: Cut off the head...

How their legal departments didn't see this coming from miles away is baffling

But if Verizon and AT&T are liable, so are those in gov't who took the information. Those people responsible should be sent to jail.

i'm sure there was an extensive discussion in the legal departments of these two companies, just like there was at Qwest.

agreed- AT&T and Verzion aren't the only ones that are guilty of breaking the law. However, good luck with tracing it into the bowels of the NSA...

My guess is, the government told them, they would be protected, and so far, they were right.

Unfortunately, there's a little thing getting in the way of suing the government for asking for the information in the first place: sovereign immunity
