All of this could be avoided if at&t didn’t make those logs in the first place. These logs are not necessary for their service.

No idea about the US law, but in some countries those logs are required by law.

I wouldn’t be surprised if they are required by US law, the tech and telecom industries have always been best buds with the cops and the intelligence services

Laws can change, though, and maybe the security argument against excessive logging this is a demonstration of will resonate with those cops and spies (lord knows the civil liberty argument falls on deaf ears)
