A class action lawsuit has been filed against six phone companies who allegedly allowed the National Security Agency to access their phone and internet records.
The plaintiffs are four West Michigan phone customers who have brought the suit against phone companies and internet providers AT&T, Cellular One, Charter Communication, MCI, Transworld Network and Verizon Wireless.
Christopher and Rebecca Yowtz of Coopersville, Ryan Halbower of Traverse City and Joan DuBois of West Olive are among the many people who have filed a dozen class action lawsuits against the phone companies. These four residents represent all Michigan phone customers.
Their attorney, Russell Sipes of the law firm George & Sipes, said that the violation is of both state and federal statutes.
