US government given December deadline to unseal more NSA documents

A federal judge has ruled that the US government must unseal more documents related to the National Security Agency spying program by December 20. The news comes from an Electronic Frontier Foundation (EFF) press release after the organization found some recent success in its long-running Jewel v. NSA lawsuit. (The EFF initially filed suit in 2008 in response to Bush administration revelations about the existence of NSA spying programs.)
