FCC investigation of spy-gate?:

It could happen. The Commissioner of the FCC Michael Copps has advocated an investigation of the illegal role of telecom giants such as AT&T and Verizon in the illegal NSA phone database. "There is no doubt that protecting the security of the American people is our government's No. 1 responsibility," Copps, a Democrat, ("liberal witch hunt!!"), said in a statement yesterday. "But in a digital age where collecting, distributing and manipulating consumers' personal information is as easy as a click of a button, the privacy of our citizens must still matter." Well said, but it remains to be seen whether anyone in government will actually see this through. I'm thinknig no.
