EFF: AT&T, Comcast, and Snapchat are laggards on privacy policies

(Ars Technica): http://arstechnica.com/tech-policy/2014/05/att-comcast-and-snapchat-are-laggards-on-privacy-policies/

    The highest ratings -- companies given six stars -- were handed to
    Apple, Credo Mobile, Dropbox, Facebook, Google, Microsoft, Sonic,
    Twitter, and Yahoo.  The report, (PDF) released Thursday, reviewed
    26 companies in all, rating them on everything from whether they
    require warrants for data handovers to whether they have publicly
    opposed mass surveillance and fight for "users' privacy rights in
    courts."  The study found that Snapchat, AT&T, and Comcast lagged
    "behind others." Snapchat was among the biggest privacy
    underachievers, earning one star.
