AT&T surveillance case
p2pnet.net News:- US district court judge Vaughn Walker will this Thursday hear requests from media groups to unseal critical evidence in the Electronic Frontier Foundation’s (EFF’s) class-action lawsuit against AT&T.
The suit accuses it of working with the National Security Agency (NSA) in illegal spying on American citizens.
“The sealed evidence includes a declaration by Mark Klein, a retired AT&T telecommunications technician, as well as several internal AT&T documents and portions of a declaration from EFF’s expert witness,” says the EFF.
“Some of the evidence was previously released in redacted form, while other evidence is still completely unavailable to the media and the public.”
If you’re in San Francisco, the hearing will be at 2:00 pm at 450 Golden Gate Ave., Courtroom 6, San Francisco, CA 94102.
