Yahoo Inc last year secretly built a custom software program to search all of its customers' incoming emails for specific information provided by U.S. intelligence officials, according to people familiar with the matter.

The company complied with a classified U.S. government demand, scanning hundreds of millions of Yahoo Mail accounts at the behest of the National Security Agency or FBI, said three former employees and a fourth person apprised of the events.

Some surveillance experts said this represents the first case to surface of a U.S. Internet company agreeing to an intelligence agency's request by searching all arriving messages, as opposed to examining stored messages or scanning a small number of accounts in real time.

The most surprising thing about this story is that Yahoo! still exists.
What do you mean "we", have you got a mouse in your pocket?

So they could show us any Clinton emails to or from Yahoo accounts.

And she said she would be happy to share.
The Confederate soldier was peculiar in that he was ever ready to fight, but never ready to submit to the routine duty and discipline of the camp or the march. The soldiers were determined to be soldiers after their own notions, and do their duty, for the love of it, as they thought best. Carlton McCarthy

What?

Utah Data Center, dipshits. Just, Utah Data Center.

Searching arriving messages is no longer the thing to worry about.
I cite irreconcilable differences.
