N.S.A. Gets More Latitude to Share Intercepted Communications

     In its final days, the Obama administration has expanded the
   power of the National Security Agency to share globally
   intercepted personal communications with the government's 16
   other intelligence agencies before applying privacy
   protections. The new rules significantly relax longstanding
   limits on what the N.S.A. may do with the information gathered
   by its most powerful surveillance operations, which are
   largely unregulated by American wiretapping laws. These
   include collecting satellite transmissions, phone calls and
   emails that cross network switches abroad, and messages
   between people abroad that cross domestic network switches.
