NSA Admits to Buying Americans' Internet Data

Senator Ron Wyden calls for intelligence agencies to stop purchasing illegally obtained personal data and to purge collected data.

The National Security Agency (NSA) has admitted to purchasing data records from brokers detailing Americans' website and app usage, according to US Senator Ron Wyden.
This follows Wyden's push last year that led to the FBI admitting to similar practices.
Wyden is now calling for all intelligence agencies to stop buying personal data from Americans that has been obtained illegally by data brokers.
The NSA's practices involve buying 'various types' of information for foreign intelligence, cybersecurity, and authorized mission purposes, some of which may come from devices used both outside and inside the United States.
Wyden has called for the intelligence community to inventory and then 'promptly' purge the data that they allegedly illegally collected on Americans without a warrant.
