AT&T Can Continue Hiding Surveillance Secrets

Megan Tady, The New Standard

A federal judge in San Francisco ruled Tuesday that evidence will remain sealed in the class-action lawsuit accusing AT&T of collaborating with the government to illegally spy on Americans' communications...

In a press statement, EFF expressed its disappointment in the judge's decision. "Given that the privacy of millions of Americans is at stake, we strongly believe that the public would benefit from seeing this evidence for themselves," said Cindy Cohn, EFF's legal director.
