Yet Another NSA Program: Mystic
The Washington Post reports on yet another NSA surveillance program: Mystic.
The National Security Agency has built a surveillance system capable of recording “100 percent” of a foreign country’s telephone calls, enabling the agency to rewind and review conversations as long as a month after they take place, according to people with direct knowledge of the effort and documents supplied by former contractor Edward Snowden.
In related news, in a court filing, DOJ confirmed warrantless mass e-mail surveillance during the Bush administration.
