The Other Big Story About AT&T

AT&T, $39 billion, T-Mobile, blah, blah, and so on. I’d like to remind you about President George W. Bush’s warrantless surveillance program that in 2008 became the FISA Amendments Act. What that means is the NSA is still monitoring Americans’ phone and internet use with the help of AT&T. Yesterday, though, a federal appeals court reinstated an important legal challenge to that surveillance. Wired has the details — and a pic of a secret room at AT&T where that surveillance happens.
