Surprise! Surprise! NSA violates privacy!
The Washington Post reports today that the National Security Agency engages in hundreds of largely unpreventable privacy violations every quarter. The source materials—also available on the Post's website—"include a level of detail and analysis that is not routinely shared with Congress or the special court that oversees surveillance [FISA court]."The National Security Agency has broken privacy rules or overstepped its legal authority thousands of times each year since Congress granted the agency broad new powers in 2008, according to an internal audit and other top-secret documents.
