EFF Discovers FBI Received Unauthorized Email Access
The Electronic Frontier Foundation, better known as the “EFF,” has uncovered evidence the FBI received a significant volume of email it was not authorized to receive.
Before you assume something sinister, it appears the email was received because of a technical glitch. Eric Lichtblau in his New York Times article takes the reader through a landscape of how technical tools are evolving — and how they don’t always work the way we hope or expect.
The EFF for nearly 20 years has been the public’s champion with respect to digital rights and the electronic domain. It has been very effective, and has shaped the legal landscape on digital rights in many cases.
