-Verizon admits to having released data without court order, hundreds of times. So, did some thugs in brown shirts show up at their door and say turn it over or else? Probably something like that. Feather or two to Quest for saying no (and paying the consequences apparently...) Look here:
Verizon also disclosed that the FBI, using administrative subpoenas, sought information identifying not just a person making a call, but all the people that customer called, as well as the people those people called. Verizon does not keep data on this "two-generation community of interest" for customers, but the request highlights the broad reach of the government's quest for data.
Rememer that if you go out to the sixth circle, you get about everybody in the world. Isn't that how that goes? Jeesh. Big Brother is here.
Gotta go. Playing with the boys at Lakeview this morning. Eric has completed his aerating of the greens. Hurray!
