AT&T to aid RIAA & MPAA

I couldn’t agree more with Skirge here, this is not a good sign for the privacy of consumers. Let’s hope others don’t hop on this bandwagon. 

This is just plain S-C-A-R-Y!!!  Another caveat is that even if you don’t directly subscribe to one of AT&T’s services, they most likely carry your data at some point in the process, due to their huge internet backbone.
