Well, you can’t say that you didn’t see this one coming. The Department of Justice will be invoking the Military and State Secrets priviledge in the EFF vs. AT&T lawsuit. They are also asking for a dismissal os the lawsuit which involves the use of Narus technology to eavesdrop on Americans.

The United States government filed a “Statement of Interest” Friday in the Electronic Frontier Foundation’s (EFF’s) class-action lawsuit against AT&T, announcing that the government would “assert the military and state secrets privilege” and “intervene to seek dismissal” of the case.

Lift a rock and watch the roaches run.
