Justice Dept. weighs Google's request to lift NSA gag order
http://j.mp/193erqu (CNET)
The U.S. Department of Justice confirmed Tuesday that it is
considering requests from Google, Facebook, and Microsoft that would
let them clear their names after allegations they opened their
networks to government spies, although U.S. Attorney General Eric
Holder has not yest issued a decision on the matter. In response to
queries from CNET, the Justice Department said late this afternoon:
"The department has received the letter from the chief legal officer
at Google. We are in the process of reviewing their request."
