The Billboard Liberation Front today announced a major new advertising improvement campaign executed on behalf of clients AT&T and the National Security Agency. Focusing on billboards in the San Francisco area, this improvement action is designed to promote and celebrate the innovative collaboration of these two global communications giants.
AT&T initially downplayed its heroic efforts in the War on Terror, preferring to serve in silence behind the scenes. “But then we realized we had a PR win on our hands,” noted AT&T V.P. of Homeland Security James Croppy.
“Not only were we helping NSA cut through the cumbersome red tape of the FISA system, we were also helping our customers by handing over their e-mails and phone records to the government. Modern life is so hectic – who has time to cc the feds on every message? It’s a great example of how we anticipate our customers’ needs and act on them. And, it should be pointed out, we offered this service free of charge.”

Hi Couchmouse,
Is this kind of logic still being peddled? Are there people who still buy this irrational and demented way of thinking?
Funny that the so called Patriot Act is the most unpatriotic act of a sitting President against his own constituents. Life is full of contradictions, I know - but this one is downright unconstitutional! –Durano, done!

Why do the people who talk most about national security make me feel insecure?

What in the world makes me feel like AT&T is a good carrier? I don’t appreciate the government spying on me and listening in on my conversations. That’s against my constitutional rights as a citizen and I’m really tired of Mr. Bush tramping all over them.

Good for AT&T. Why do people think the federal government would have any interest in their mundane telephone conversations?

Every effort must be made by a new administration to prosecute The Neocons, Cheney, Bush, AT&T and Verison. Reopen 911 investigations and perge ourselves of the statutes of this administration, rid ourselves of the sickness of the last 8 years. Pray for us, it is a time for prayer!

At&t and Verison must be prosecuted. It is bad enough that we have a government that acts against our will without Corporations being given a free hand to assist. Allow corporate America to assist our government in illegal action and we have Facism, even more dangerous in this age of information.
