Fezmid Posted August 2, 2012 Share Posted August 2, 2012 "Specifically, Al Franken and Rand Paul are pushing an amendment to make sure companies can't spy on their users' private communications." The problem is that companies don't generally care to spy on private communications -- it's the government that does, and they force the vendors to hand of over that private information.
