for their secret wiretapping operation

quote:

The U.S. federal government filed a lawsuit against Sprint Communications Inc. in a San Francisco court, alleging the company charged law enforcement agencies $21 million too much for wiretapping services.

The court-approved, court-ordered wiretaps were used by the likes of the Federal Bureau of Investigation and the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives, the Associated Press reported.

Communication companies are legally allowed to bill the government to recoup the costs of wiretaps. But they’re not allowed to over charge.

Consider it a "hidden cost" of the NSA getting a shite-ton of metadata from Sprint about their phones' users. They can bill it out at the data rates they use for their plan if the government wants to bitch about it.
