U.S.: The NSA admits to “overcollection” of information on Americans
- They’ve been feeling the heat lately. The National Security Administration, which had a close friend in the Bush Administration, now is adjusting for Barack Obama. The NSA recently admitted collecting wiretapped phone calls and private e-mails on a scale that was probably illegal and went well beyond the broad limits Congress allowed for them last year. Good job, guys. We were wondering what that clicking noise was when we were on the phone the other day. Now we know it was you! source
