DESCRIPTION:They've Got Your Number…  The AT&T - NSA Spying Scandal  A conversation 
 with…  Jeff Mittman, Post-9/11 Campaign Coordinator, American Civil 
 Liberties Union  Danny O'Brien, Activism Coordinator, Electronic Frontier 
 Foundation  The Electronic Frontier Foundation (EFF) filed a class-action 
 lawsuit against AT&T on January 31, 2006, accusing the telecom giant of 
 violating the law and the privacy of its customers by collaborating with 
 the National Security Agency (NSA) in its massive and illegal program to 
 wiretap and data-mine Americans' communications.   In December of 2005, the 
 press revealed that the government had instituted a comprehensive and 
 warrantless electronic surveillance program that ignored the careful 
 safeguards set forth by Congress – based on the Bill of Rights. The 
 surveillance program, purportedly authorized by the President at least as 
 early as 2001 and primarily undertaken by the NSA, intercepts and analyzes 
 the communications of millions of Americans. But the government did not act 
 – and is not acting – alone. The government requires the collaboration 
 of major telecommunications companies to implement its unprecedented and 
 illegal domestic spying program.  The program will be broadcast and webcast 
 live on Mid-Peninsula Community Media Cable Channel 27 and rebroadcast 
 throughout June as part of the ongoing Other Voices television series 
 produced by Peninsula Peace and Justice Center.  Free and open to the 
 public.  Sponsored by Peninsula Peace and Justice Center.  For more
