Verizon wireless, a cellphone company is in the news because it has cases pending against it for turning over cellular phone record to government security services.
Verizon is detesting the lawsuit on the grounds of free speech and the first amendment.
The government is fighting for all telecommunications companies, ever since September 11th.
I think that in a way the cell phone company has a right to do this but shouldn't their be some kind of contract between the cellphone company and the customer to release personal information.
We all have seen cases where the police have used cellphones to solve a crime because they had the phone records given to them by the phone company. Then again if there is no wrong doing people still have the right to their privacy.
