BREAKING : Verizon Secretly Taps Phone Calls ~ 1984 is NOW!!!


Government collecting Verizon phone records records of millions of Americans are being collected .Verizon customers have apparently had their phone records collected by the N.S.A. in a big brother/1984 style telephone tapping snooping scandal.

Government collecting Verizon phone records records of millions of Americans are being collected. If you're a Verizon customer, the U.S. government may be accessing your phone records, according to a report in a British newspaper.

The phone records of millions of Americans are being collected, regardless of any suspected wrongdoing - that's according to Britain's Guardian newspaper.

A senior Obama administration official will not confirm the report but does defend the practice allowed under the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act, saying:

"Information of the sort described in the Guardian article has been a critical tool in protecting the nation from terrorist threats to the United States, as it allows counterterrorism personnel to discover whether known or suspected terrorists have been in contact with other persons who may be engaged in terrorist activities, particularly people located inside the United States."

The newspaper sites a top secret court order that requires Verizon to give the National Security Agency information on all telephone calls in its system on an "ongoing, daily basis." The order began on April 25 and runs through July 19.

That includes calls made by Verizon customers within the U.S. and between the U.S. and other countries. Verizon has 121 million customers.

Former presidential candidate Newt Gingrich says he supports whatever it takes to prevent a terror attack, as long the information is restricted to the NSA.

"Between the total failure of Attorney General Holder and his team and the IRS scandal and all the other things we're watching, why would anyone trust the government to keep its word? In an ideal world, if you had a trustworthy government and they said the only purpose is to look for terrorism, well, terrorism is a multinational project, and you've got to be aware that there are Americans engaged in terrorism," Gingrich said.

Former Vice President Al Gore Tweeted his reaction writing, "In a digital era, privacy must be a priority. Is it just me, or is secret blanket surveillance obscenely outrageous?"

Under the terms of the order, phone calls are not recorded. The data collected includes the phone numbers of both parties, where calls are made and the length of a conversation.
