It wasn't his BlackBerry, it was a non-smartphone. But Verizon has confirmed that several employees used their access to view President Change's private records for a cellphone account. Verizon's spin is that the account had been inactive for several months, and the phone didn't have email or data capability, so the damage wasn't that bad. I'm hoping for a statement from Sprint: "At least our employees would have snooped the right phone."
