Congress voted earlier this year to give retroactive immunity to telecoms that had participated in the governments warrantless wiretapping program, a move that was a huge victory for the telcos and a big setback for the related cases that were all pending at the time. One of those cases was a case filed by the Electronic Frontier Foundation against AT&T.

The EFF isnt giving up the seemingly hopeless battle; the group is expanding the lawsuit and plans to sue the government for its role in the wiretapping.

Judge: No deception over iPhone battery, lawsuit dismissed

A lawsuit against Apple and AT&T over the limited life of the iPhone's non-user-replaceable battery has been dismissed.
