It's newly relevant with the AT&T/T-Mo buyout. Do we really want that much more traffic going straight to the NSA?

You say that as if because AT&T was the only bunch of idiots dumb enough to get caught that it's safe or reasonable to assume the VZW and others aren't doing the same.

There's definitely evidence VZW did the same.

I used T-Mobile for years because they were the only ones that there wasn't much evidence against, plus I thought the parent company was a bit more credible, but it's all a black box from the user's perspective.

I wonder if T-Mobile being German-owned had anything to do with that.
