News Summary

US Mobile and cellular startup Cape have updated their policies to notify customers about government surveillance requests whenever legally permitted, following inquiries by Senator Ron Wyden. This change comes in light of Wyden’s investigation revealing that major carriers like AT&T, Verizon, and T-Mobile failed to notify the Senate about surveillance requests, despite contractual obligations. US Mobile’s founder and CEO, Ahmed Khattak, confirmed the company’s new policy, while Cape’s CEO, John Doyle, emphasized their commitment to subscriber notification unless legally restricted.
