What? You mean Project ESCHELON and the Patriot Act aren't enough? My dangerous dance with politics here: What in the world happened to the Fourth Amendment? Fear is frequently used to promote political and military agendas. In this case, the fear is capped by a door slam "don't bother trying to pursue the government OR the telcos for violations for the "assumed privacy" that you signed up for...you simply won't win in court." Another dance? Fear of terrorism should not dictate our lives as it does. You and I live in "The Home of The Brave". Please don't forget that part.

Your chances of dying from choking on peanut shells is higher than your chances of dying from a terror attack, but the constant lies and fear mongering has done its job well.
We are not free, and certainly are not brave.

Not sure what that image proves. Any image can be doctored.

I use AT&T online billing and I can assure you that it's not a doctored image. The image and header elements have since been removed from their current website, but you can still view a Google-cached version of it here . I suspect that AT&T saw the tastelessness of their humor, which is why they took it down so quickly. For me, it was the "Online Liberation Movement" jab at personal privacy that was a bit over the top.
