ATT wants immunity from eavesdropping

ATT wants to filter and mine your data

What next? The ATT we want access to your PC policy to make sure nothing on there harms the company in any way? Better yet, how about the ATT banking records division. If we know your financial details, we can assess how much to charge you for broadband. If we find you are rich, we'll raise your price.... This company disgusts me.

I hope this immunity crap is NOT passed in congress. If it is, Americans can kiss their rights goodbye FOREVER. It'll be the final nail in the coffin signing away our freedoms to companies. Basically, this legislation will serve as the open door policy to allow businesses to do as they please. If the immunity does not pass (high doubt), then this action will open ATT for more lawsuits. What happens if they filter the upload of a home video, and cause it to be lost in transmission? What happens if a company's data gets corrupted because a filter suspects it's a pirated file? The sky is the limit and so are the problems with ATT.

I hope that's irony and not the truth... However, ATT isn't far from this bit of sarcasm. If they keep this up, they'll require your banking account and remote access to your pc. Then they will have everything they need to destroy your lives, in case they find something they deem questionable. Ah yes, Corporate America screwing the customer. Where have I heard that before.... Tyco.... Enron.. Woldcomm.... Etc.
