EFF Sues To Overturn Telecom Immunity
Mike writes "The title says it all — The EFF is suing to have the unconstitutional telecom immunity overturned. 'In a brief filed in the US District Court [PDF] in San Francisco, the EFF argues that the flawed FISA Amendments Act (FAA) violates the federal government's separation of powers as established in the Constitution and robs innocent telecom customers of their rights without due process of law. [...] "We have overwhelming record evidence that the domestic spying program is operating far outside the bounds of the law," said EFF Senior Staff Attorney Kurt Opsahl. "Intelligence agencies, telecoms, and the Administration want to sweep this case under the rug, but the Constitution won't permit it."'"
I'm sure most slashdotters know how painful that is!

No. No, we do not. I don't know where you got your ideas of the typical slashdotter's sexual activities, but they scare me.

I was just about to post a "hear, hear" reply when I noticed the name on the post.
We're counting down the days until you get home on leave!

If you're going that route, you really should probably get a .50-cal sniper rifle while they're still legal. You'll live slightly longer as an insurgent.
But please include the EFF in your will.
