ATT, Verizon, Sprint Are Paid Cash By NSA For Your Private Communications
The National Security Agency pays AT&T , Verizon and Sprint several hundred million dollars a year for access to 81% of all international phone calls into the US, according to a leaked inspector general’s report, which has been reported by the Washington Post, AP, and the New York Review of Books. In fact., this secret report says that “NSA maintains relationships with over 100 U.S. companies, underscoring that the U/S. has the “home-field advantage as the primary hub for worldwide communications,” the New York Review of Books reported in its August 15 issue. These secret cooperative agreements reveal that NSA pays surveillance fees to telcos and phone companies were first made public by Edward Snowden, the former NSA administrator, now resident in Russia.
AT&T charges $325 for each activation fee and $10 a day to monitor the account, according to the AP. Verizon charges $775 per tapping for the first month and then $500 a month thereafter, according to the Associated Press today. The article reported that Microsoft , Yahoo and Google refused to say how much they charged to allow the government to tap into emails and other non-telephonic communications.
In a separate report the Washington Post reported that NSA pays the telcos roughly $300 million annually

I wonder if this includes pre-paids as well? I have never had a phone contract. I always go with pre-paid from Straight Talk but I think they are affiliated with Sprint too. Really interesting to find out about the email situation as well.

I see that Verizon is going to go out of business in 10 years from now because they went Bankrupt because of Taxes not paid. Thanks for sharing that Chris.
