I called AT & T, asked if my telephone & computer are being spied on by the NSA - UPDATE - THEY SAID I AM!!

I saw, Trin!

Chit.

That WAS coincidental!!

Hey!

All you people out there!

Are you just gonna sit there and stare at the computer's monitor or are you going to actually use your finger to dial your service provder and bitch about this bushchit???

DELUGE your provider!!!

Ask them if YOU'RE being spied on!!

What?

What kicks me off is that I can't get Qwest in my state.

The only company with the brass tacks to stand up to the feds, and I can't get it.

Buy stock in Qwest.

That's my tip for the day.

Hey Pol good for you, keep at it and let us know what happens.

Shadow!!!!



I thought NO one would post to this thread!

Thank you, sweetie, for at least offering encouragement.

Chit. I won't let this drop. No freakin' way.

I'm p.o.'ed. BIG time.

I hope you call, too.

We have a right to know wha...no wait a minute...we USED to have a right to know our privacy isn't being invaded.

Now, who the he** knows??

I will call tomorrow.

Bet the house on it.

Good to see you.

Good for you polly! I have qwest, or I sure would be inundating my provider with calls and emails!

Polly, How can I find out which companies handed over phone records?

Thanks, A.C. 76936.

Dayum, we ALL have to stand up and be counted, forcryingoutloud, or they will CONTINUE to get away with this bushchit.

Good for you having Qwest.

I'm green with envy!

A.C. 92200, on another thread I saw a list of companies and their response.

If I can find it again, I'll repost it here.

Thanks Polly!

I will be calling in the next day or so to ask them.

I have to change some services to my account with Verizon anyways so, QUESTION TIME for them.

Found it!

With many thanks to the OP, A.C. 631!

* = Not a company contacted by Rep. John Conyers.
[1] The answer did not explicitly address NSA but said that compliance happens only if required by law.
[2] Provided by a source with knowledge of what this company is telling Conyers. In the case of Sprint Nextel, the source was familiar with Nextel's operations.
[3] As part of an answer to a closely related question for a different survey.
[4] The response was "NTT Communications respects the privacy rights of our customers and complies fully with law enforcement requests as permitted and required by law."
[5] The response was "Verizon complies with applicable laws and does not comment on law enforcement or national security matters."

Wonderful, Mrdjs7!!!



United we stand!

R-E-L-A-X there chicklet....
This has been going on since telecommunications were introduced. The only NEW thing here is that the majority of the public is catching on. You are WAY behind the 8-Ball.
Do some research babes!

I know, ethereal girl, or at least I SUSPECTED. I'm hoping most other GLP'ers do, too.

However, after bush stating that no Americans are being spied on...

And, after bush stating that only a small number of Americans are being spied on (remember, they were "indaverdently" collected along with the bad guys....

And, then, I think there was a public release of a number around 5,000 Americans were being spied on....

we now have 200 MILLION Americans being spied on!!

Chit, woman!

What should we wait for?

I'm not getting flippant with you, I want you to know that, but if not now, WHEN??

REally ethereral girl,

been going on awhile you say,

really, how long, since telecomunications began.

perhaps,

however,

this president was caught at it.

Why,

seems he was turned out doesn't it.

now

what does

that


tell
you

I just have local calling, no long distance.
Both phone & DSL are with Bell South.
Is Bell South also on this dam list?
Oh, and by the way, every dam time I call for customer DSL support, I get some want-to-be American over in India or Tiwan or the Philippines.
They name is always like Jeff, Mary, John or Sara.
Always ask for the last 4 digits of your soicial sercurity number, so once I said '1234' and then they said oh no, that is not correct. I said, well, don't you have the entire number show up on your screen, they said no, just the last 4 numbers.

bump - cancel you contract with the companies that spied on you.

Just called verizon wireless, they said that they are not participating in hte spying on americans. "thats verizon lan lines she said" hmmm

Good for you. Stand up to them.

Yeah good for you. That kills me that a company you and I pay money to can't answer a simple question.

Tell your provider that you have a reverse-echo quantum wave frequency adapter that allows you to spy back.

Who siad it has to be long distance?
No one!
It's ALL phonecalls!

verizon is getting a call from me tomorrow, and T-Mobile!

I'm with Qwest. I'll be calling to thank them tomorrow.

What else can I do, A.C. 1326??

What else can WE do?????

This is OUR country, dayumit!

bush is in there for another 2 lousy years.

He can pluck this place, OUR HOME, up plenty in that amount of time.

WE ALL have to do this.

We have to badger, bitch, complain, and cancel our service with any provider who does not believe that domestic spying is WRONG.

I'd love to see a headline on the mainstream news that people are leaving those listed companies in droves.

Time to stick it to the man.

Well, Kent, I did get a giggle outta that one.

As a matter of fact, I think I'll copy it down for my little "dissertation" tomorrow.

When enough people have had enough and march on the Whitehouse and Congress then change will naturally follow.

I think it's interesting how google never responded...avoid google!!!!!!

Girl to guy> THAT'S NOT MY BELLY-BUTTON._Guy to girl> THATS NOT MY FINGER:

Polly, let this go, as these complaints are under litigation, from the senate and congress.

They will soon make some big statement, such as somehow an NSA agent fell into a switching room.

Annd under the influence of a mood medication and plugged in his jack, as he thought it was his pecker and could not tell the difference between and electrical socket and the company secretary.

b, why would I drop this?

Why would I not call AT & T and ask my question, listen to their answer, give the rep a piece of my mind to take back to the top brass, and then decide which company I'll transfer my account to?

If you and me, your next door neighbor and mine, their friends and relatives, and so on, do the same thing, don't you think it would have some impact?

SAD BUT TRUE

LIES COVER LIES.

EVEN WORSE SOME MAKE EXCUSES FOR THESE ACTIONS.

BUT WE CAN FIGHT BACK CONSTITUTIONALLY.

SELL ATT AND VERIZON STOCK

CANCEL THEIR CONTRACTS.

DONT BUY EXXON PRODUCTS

BUY CITGO PRODUCTS

THE LIST IS ENDLESS BUT IS ALL POSITIVE AFFIRMATIE ACTION AGAINST THE NWO SLAVERY AND THEFT.
