Senator Reveals Which Phone Companies Protect Privacy by Telling Customers About Government Surveillance; Carriers Did Not Follow Through on Requirement to Notify Senate of Surveillance Demands.

Sounds less like "protecting your privacy" and more like "letting you know when the government is violating your privacy."
What exactly do you expect them to do other than notify you? They can't do anything against ESCHELON or Stellar Wind or MYSTIC or PRISM or or or or
of course but still what if we wouldn't spread false things. if they are not allowed to protect my privacy, we shouldn't (and neither should them) cqll it protecting our privacy, because that's simply false and misleading
OK, fair enough.
A surveillance canary
Google playing both sides.
Shocked AF that they are on the list at all since they buy their network time from T-Mobile.
Maybe Google Voice is factored in?
As expected. Would like to point out that they were the only ones from the listed carriers that notified all customers, prior to being asked by the Senator's office.
So, only MVNOs will notify you.
Is that what those are called? All the big name carriers are in the NO column. I don't have experience with those others in the YES column.
Mobile Virtual Network Operators. They're only buying capacity on other operators' networks.
