Boing Boing: EFF suing AT&T for helping NSA illegally spy on Americans
From the article:
…
The lawsuit also alleges that AT&T has given the government unfettered access to its over 300 terabyte “Daytona” database of caller information — one of the largest databases in the world. Moreover, by opening its network and databases to wholesale surveillance by the NSA, EFF alleges that AT&T has violated the privacy of its customers and the people they call and email, as well as broken longstanding communications privacy laws.
This of course follows EFF actions against the TSA for their failure to follow the law.
