EFF to sue Bush, Cheney, NSA and others over telecom spying
The government has decreed that they can't sue the phone companies over illegal spying on Americans, so instead they're about sue the government.
From an Electronic Frontier Foundation press alert just received here:
The Electronic Frontier Foundation (EFF) will file a lawsuit against the National Security Agency (NSA) and other government agencies today on behalf of AT&T customers to stop the illegal, unconstitutional, and ongoing dragnet surveillance of their communications and communications records.
The five individual plaintiffs are also suing President George W. Bush, Vice President Dick Cheney, Cheney's chief of staff David Addington, former Attorney General and White House Counsel Alberto Gonzales and other individuals who ordered or participated in the warrantless domestic surveillance.
