When comparing GCHQ or NSA, who is the spookiest of them all? Which one of them is sucking in more information and who does more with that info ? my impression is that there is less institutional oversight over spooks in the UK than in the US, is that true ?
- ionised 11y agoSnowden claimed that the UK's surveillance operations were a lot more severe than the US, basically due to a much weaker oversight framework. The US might have a secret court with secret judges but all it takes for surveillance to be signed off on in the UK is the signature of a minister in the currently governing party.
