From EPIC:
EPIC filed a Freedom of Information Act lawsuit against the Federal Trade Commission over the agency’s failure to disclose to EPIC information about the FTC’s decision to end the Google Spy-Fi investigation. EPIC is specifically seeking documents that the FTC widely circulated to members of Congress and their staff that provide the basis for the agency’s decision. Privacy agencies around the world found that Google unlawfully intercepted private communications traffic. Yet documents obtained earlier by EPIC under the FOIA suggest that the FTC did not even examine the data Google gathered from private residential Wi-Fi routers in the United States. EPIC is hosting a Capitol Briefing on May 18th on “Street View, Privacy, and the Security of Wireless Networks.”
