Yahoo! We Are Spying On Youuu!

The uncomfortably cosy relationship between tech companies and the NSA reached new heights yesterday when Reuters reported that Yahoo! had built a special software to scan all your incoming emails for the NSA or FBI, as they presumably search for criminals still stuck in the 90’s. This isn’t the first time that Yahoo! comes under fire for divulging customer information to security agencies. In the 2000’s Yahoo! gave China information on some dissidents, resulting in their arrest. Yahoo hasn’t denied the claims but insists that it abides with US laws. Meanwhile, if you do decide to change from Yahoo to gmail don’t forget to sign up to Daily Pnut with your new email.
