Commentary on: Supreme Court Takes On Corporate Privacy Case With AT&T

“What is truly tragic is that the US Supreme Court, past and present, is far more comfortable protecting artificial, invisible, intangible financial constructs than it is living breathing American citizens. Unfortunately, this is a logical extension of where the US Supreme Court is heading. As I pointed out in a recent blog, entitled, “The Underpinnings of Modern Corporate Power”, Justice Stevens’ dissent in the recent United Citizens case points out that the Court’s current logic means corporations will soon be insisting on the right to vote. Clearly, AT&T lawyers seek to follow where the Supreme Court leads.”
