Yahoo has denied building software that allowed U.S. intelligence agencies to scan all incoming emails of its users. According to a report in Reuters, the company worked in concert with the National Security Agency and FBI to spy on hundreds of millions of email accounts. "We narrowly interpret every government request for user data to minimize disclosure," Yahoo said in a statement. "The mail scanning described in the article does not exist on our systems."
