So why does this lawyer still work for Qwest?It looks like somone is playing both ends
against the middle
Qwest supports data retention laws. No, wait, it
doesn't!
There are conflicting messages here. Broadband provider Qwest Communications International said Wednesday that it made a mistake when one of its lawyers endorsed federal legislation requiring Internet providers to keep records of customers' behavior. Jennifer Mardosz, Qwest's corporate counsel and chief privacy officer, said in an interview with CNET News.com that she misspoke during a panel discussion organized by the Progress and Freedom Foundation in Aspen, Colo., the day before. "I just completely misspoke there," Mardosz said. During the panel discussion, she said Qwest "absolutely" supports House of Representatives legislation sponsored by Rep. Diana DeGette mandating data retention--a requirement that Attorney General Alberto Gonzales said will aid in terrorism and child exploitation investigations. This is a big gaffe. Qwest needs to clarify it's ACTUAL policy pretty quick. Oh, and did you notice how the U.S. Attorney General managed to make "child exploitation" the same as terrorism? I wonder if that means that all those child actors and models will be out of work. Not to mention politicos who say they are "doing it for the children."
