Of course, AT&T does not make the page easy to find. I wound up doing a
search for "Privacy", and then "Privacy Manager".
The second search provided the link, which was, of course, broken -- it's
missing the leading "http://".
Once there, you have to go to multiple pages to opt out of everything that you
can, and some of them say that you must do this on EACH COMPUTER that you wish
to opt out on.

Sorry, I can't use the same
servers he does.
Digital Ocean is a US company based in NYC
and two of
its three servers are in New York and San Francisco.

Since when is evasion a criminal act? The Third Amendment should provide
protection from government interference in the home. If all communications are
monitored, even inside the home (kinect will be always on, cameras on every
electronics) then its the same as having a policeman or soldier stationed in
your house. We have a right not to have the governments eyes always be on us.[ Reply to This | Parent | # ]

Now the
big question is: how can he safely get to a country that has offered him asylum?
The kidnapping of the president of Bolivia shows that some countries
(presumably arm twisted by the US) are willing to break international law and
international treaties in order to apprehend Snowden.
I think his situation is
better than Assange's because Russia seems more amenable to granting
safe-passage than Great Britain but Snowden would still have a long way to go
after leaving Russia.
I'm having a hard time wrapping my head around the
idea that the US is hunting down whistle-blowers instead of offering them
asylum. We've come a very long way from erecting a statute to Liberty and
saying:
Keep, ancient lands, your storied pomp!
Give me
your tired, your poor, ...
It feels like the world is all
backwards now.
