yes. each and every one of us was asked if we want our data shared.

“Spying would be listening to the call. Spying would be recording the call. This was not spying.”

The NSA program was voluntary, which is why Quest &#38; T-Mobile aren&rsquo;t being penalized for withholding data. In fact, it seems if your provider gave the government your call logs, they were being paid for it under a contract! The NSA&rsquo;s domestic program began soon after the Sept. 11 attacks, according to the sources. Right around that time, they said, NSA representatives approached the nation&rsquo;s biggest telecommunications companies. The agency made an urgent pitch: National security is at risk, and we need your help to protect the country from attacks. &nbsp; The agency told the companies that it wanted them to turn over their &ldquo;call-detail records,&rdquo; a complete listing of the calling histories of their millions of customers. In addition, the NSA wanted the carriers to provide updates, which would enable the agency to keep tabs on the nation&rsquo;s calling habits. &nbsp; The sources said the NSA made clear that it was willing to pay for the cooperation. AT&#38;T, which at the time was headed by C. Michael Armstrong, agreed to help the NSA. So did BellSouth, headed by F. Duane Ackerman; SBC, headed by Ed Whitacre; and Verizon, headed by Ivan Seidenberg. With that, the NSA&rsquo;s domestic program began in earnest.
