The Feds Are Collecting Citizen Phone Records

Don’t know if any of you have heard this, but the federalies are
collecting U.S. citizen’s phone records. So far,AT&T, Verizon and
BellSouth are turning over records of tens of millions of customers'
phone calls to the National Security Agency, according to USA Today
reports that came out today.

According to the report, the program was started shortly after
terrorist attacks of Sept. 11, 2001. Reports are that the NSA
isn't listening in on the calls (so they say), but they do admit
collecting information as to who talks to who and when, and record-
ing phone numbers. They say, the “Agents are reportedly looking for
patterns that suggest terrorism”
.

Be on your guard, they may come knocking on your door if you have
used the wrong words in your phone call conversations. You can read
the article for yourself as I have included it. Just watch what you
say.
