David Cameron makes veiled threat to media over NSA and GCHQ leaks

The prime minister issued the warning after the Tory MP Julian Smith quoted a report in Monday‘s edition of the Sun that said Britain‘s intelligence agencies believe details from the NSA files leaked by the US whistleblower Edward Snowden have hampered their work.

The Sun quoted a „top surveillance source“ as saying that terrorists have „gone quiet“ after the publication of details about NSA and GCHQ operations.
