Whistleblowers have exposed that the Bush administration’s NSA (National Security Agency) is blatantly spying on US citizens, through AT&T, which gave operatives direct access to their networks in "secret rooms" located in AT&T offices. The EFF link below provides the full legal case.

AT&T Seeks to Hide Spy Documents

Class action suit challenges AT&T, NSA

Don't think for a minute that Big Brother Bush isn't illegally spying on you, right now. Every call, every log-on, any time, anywhere, with the enthusiastic assistance of corporate America.

Don’t think for a minute that the US government hasn’t routinely engaged in this sort of criminal spying all along, with Echelon, PROMIS, and other technologies.

It’s what the “national security” state does.
