BellSouth Statement on Governmental Data Collection
ATLANTA, May 15 /PRNewswire/ -- The following statement regarding media
reports about U.S. governmental agency data collection may be attributed to
BellSouth Corporation (NYSE: BLS):
There has been much speculation in the last several days about the role that
BellSouth may have played in efforts by the National Security Agency (NSA)
and other governmental agencies to keep our nation safe.
As a result of media reports that BellSouth provided massive amounts of
customer calling information under a contract with the NSA, the Company
conducted an internal review to determine the facts. Based on our review to
date, we have confirmed no such contract exists and we have not provided bulk
customer calling records to the NSA.
BellSouth has built a successful business because of the trust that our
customers have placed with us. We will continue to take our obligations to
our customers seriously.
