I've had Verizon service for over a decade and have had nothing but good interaction with them.
While I don't like the slippery slope of this, I don't do anything wrong with my phone or otherwise. So I really don't care...
Ralph, I don't do anything illegal (that I know of....) in my house, but I still do not want the government snooping on my private affairs in my home, either.
I don't know. With internet and wireless technology as it is, maybe wireless carriers need a codicil in the contract that says users have no guarantee of privacy in their calls, texts, or emails.
