Re: They have my full support
If your data or telephone calls (really the same thing anymore) never passes through a way for ATT to "grab" it, then it would never have happened, correct?
Yes, the internet has always been a bunch of networks connected together. If no one want to play with ATT they go away hence the problem goes away.
Hope that clarifies, if not I can think of no other way to explain my opinion/view. |

| No it doesnt go away.
Telephone companies were interconnected way before the Internet.
How do you think telephones became what they are? They're all interconnected. If they weren't you would never be able to call anyone outside of your phone company.
Your view gives the Gov't and ATT, VZ, Sprint/Embarq the right to do what ever they want.
The only company that had the balls to stand up to the Feds was Qwest. Why? they knew it was wrong. They didn't want a backlash from the public nor their customers.
This is most likely a good reason on why ATT's landline and internet business is in the shit hole right now. They're not trusted like others are. |

| I doubt that. If that was the case they would have just done the same thing all of the rest of them did. Went and cried that they're being sued for breaking the law and committing felonies and they need to be protected.
The CEO and the legal team knew this was wrong. |
