Description
A Government-friendly Group representing the telephone monopoly, prized for the sheer reach of a wired-in eavesdropping network across every other group's business.
Conspiracy Narrative
One of the original Illuminati game's signature jokes since its 1982 debut -- a nod to the real AT&T/Bell System telephone monopoly, broken up by a 1982 antitrust settlement, and to the long-running suspicion that 'the phone company' quietly listens in on everyone's calls.
