Wyden: AT&T, T-Mobile, and Verizon weren’t notifying senators of surveillance requests

Sen. Ron Wyden has alerted senators that major U.S. cellphone carriers AT&T, T-Mobile, and Verizon are not notifying lawmakers about government surveillance requests despite contractual obligations. This raises questions about their compliance with legal notices under current contracts, while smaller carriers like Google Fi, US Mobile, and Cape have policies requiring them to notify customers of government demands unless prohibited by law.
