| No Immunity! If you knowingly break the law, or unknowingly break the law, you have broken the law and should be subject to whatever fallout, civil or criminal, that comes your way.
Even if those telco's thought they were not breaking the law, they should have known better.
If a cop asks me to break into a house to get evidence for him, breaking into someone's house is still a crime and I should be responsible for any civil or criminal actions brought against me.
No different here. They should be fined, sued, and hand slapped so they won't do it again. Punishment is probably they only thing that will prevent this happening in the future. |

The government controls everything the telecoms can do, what makes you think they did everything willingly? Maybe that is what Bush is trying to protect in getting the immunity? |

The only thing wrong with this post is that none of this is about breaking laws.
It's about civil class action lawsuits by advocacy groups who are ginning up "damages" so that they can file the suits, backed by trial lawyers who are exclusively Democratic big-time donaters.
You may believe, personally, that "laws were broken", but unfortunately for you, that's not on the table. |
