EU says US explanation of Yahoo e-mail scanning not enough

Open up: The European Commission, the EU executive, asked the US for clarifications on the secret court order served to Yahoo.

BRUSSELS: The United States has not satisfied the European Union's concerns about Yahoo's scanning of all customers' incoming e-mails for US intelligence purposes, the bloc's justice chief told Reuters in an interview.

The European Commission, the EU executive, asked the United States in November for clarifications on the secret court order served to Yahoo as part of its monitoring of a new transatlantic pact facilitating the exchange of personal data by businesses.
