Say What?! Yahoo Has Been Monitoring Millions Of Users Emails By Order Of US Spy Agency

We don’t know about y’all but are not here for Yahoo spying on users’ incoming emails on behalf of a US spy agency!

Yes! Let us tell y’all how two former Yahoo employees claim that the company was given a classified U.S. government directive and was ordered to monitor millions of incoming emails to find out specific information.

As far as what exactly the government was on the hunt for, that code hasn’t been cracked but we’re clued that whatever it was, they were searching for a set of characters.

NY Post is reporting that the spy agency is suspected to be either the FBI or National Security Agency. Either way, are you not turned off by the fact that the government is playing peek-a-boo with our personal emails? What’s more skin-crawling is that we don’t even know if and what information was transferred.

All Yahoo had to say about the matter was that they are “a law abiding company, and complies with the laws of the United States.”

But wayment! Do y’all think other email service sites received the same request from the government?!

Let’s chat 🙂
