The email response Verizon is now sending their customers to justify their huge violation of their customers' privacy.
Mr. xxxxxNo problem, Bob. Your customers can move to another carrier that doesn't have a problem saying whether or not they just massively violated their privacy.
Verizon appreciates that the media reports about the possibility that the NSA is able to analyze local call data records is causing concern. Please be assured that Verizon places the highest value on protecting the privacy of our customers.
Anything to do with the NSA is highly classified, so I can't comment on whether or not the news article causing concern is even accurate. But I can say that, to the extent that we cooperate with government authorities, we are confident that we are complying with all applicable statutes.
