"ARE YOU HELPING THE GOVERNMENT INVADE
MY PRIVACY?
Dear AT&T, Verizon and BellSouth,


Revelations regarding the Bush administration’s illegal and warrantless spying on Americans make it clear that your company is enabling illegal government spying by turning over private details about our telephone calls to the National Security Agency .

As an American consumer, I expect you to treat my personal communications as totally private.

This is my right under the U.S. Constitution. I do not intend to forfeit it and I don’t expect you to forfeit it for me.

I am writing to demand that your company stop participating in the government’s illegal spying program.

By helping the government track the calls and communications of millions of ordinary Americans, you are violating not only the law but the trust of the American consumer. And that’s just plain wrong.

Please write me at the address below to let me know that you are reconsidering your cooperation with this un-American spying program"

6. I suggest you read the ACLU's
privacy policy before signing the petition and giving them your information.

7. Are you concerned about some aspect of their "privacy policy?"
Edited on Fri May-12-06 02:57 PM by Humor_In_Cuneiform
I am a member and have read it and see no problem that is of concern to me.

Please explain.
