I wonder if AT&T was the only corporation involved in this…. AT&T Inc. and an Internet advocacy group are waging a privacy battle in federal court that could expose the reach of the Bush administration’s secretive domestic wiretapping program. The Electronic Frontier Foundation said it obtained documents from a former AT&T technician that shows that […]
