We are sorry to hear that you have lost your PIN, and frankly a little disappointed. But Verizon realizes these things happen! We regret to inform you, however, that you cannot reset your PIN via this help line, only your FISA customer representative, your control, or Senator Diane Feinstein can do that. To meet your FISA customer representative, please hang up and drive to the Pittsburgh Bus Station and ask Eunice for the key to locker 002. You will know what to do after that. If you would like to speak to a representative about another issue, please press 1, otherwise, please hang up.
Presses 1
A representative will be with you shortly; as customer service is job one at Verizon, will you help us out by staying on the line to take a brief survey about whether we are meeting all your surveillance needs? Please press 1 for yes.
Live cheerful voice trying hard to sound like it belongs to somebody from Iowa comes on the line, Hello, My name is Lindsey, thank you for your call, how can I help you today?
Joking aside, seems like a lot of bets are out on the inability of the public to get exercised by this latest affront. Maybe digital media is the new opiate of the masses, but are we so high on it that we let government in on our every move without putting up a ruckus?
A Few Reasonable Words 
Did you hack into Verizon’s system and copy their phone script? This is priceless.!You will be getting a visit from the NSA shortly.
Post asking tech leaders to stand up and lead on this issue…or at least stop prevaricating. Although prevaricating about privacy is sort of their biz model.
