Among the many revelations included in the recently declassified version of the National Security Agency’s classified internal history American Cryptology during the Cold War, is the official confirmation that by 1973, the NSA had a watch list of over 1,600 Americans, whose communications the Agency monitored. ”The project, which became known officially as MINARET in 1969,employed unusual procedures. NSA distributed reports without the usual serialization. They were designed to look like HUMINT reports rather than SIGINT, and readers could find no originating agency.” It almost seems like the NSA knew it was doing something wrong and tried to cover it’s tracks.
