Washington, January 2 (RHC)-- The U.S. National Security Agency has released internal oversight reports showing violations and errors over a 12-year period. The practices include sharing Americans’ emails with unauthorized recipients and wrongfully gathering private information.
Most of the violations appear to have come from human error as opposed to deliberate intent. The American Civil Liberties Union has criticized the NSA for releasing the documents over the holidays, saying the timing suggests officials wanted to minimize their impact.
