Moon Administration Criticized For Spying on Private Company

Anyone surprised by this news?: 

Accusations that the Moon Jae-in Blue House spied on private citizens broadened on Tuesday after a local broadcaster reported that the presidential office’s special inspection bureau looked into a corruption allegation about Airport Railroad, a private operator of trains connecting Incheon International Airport and downtown Seoul.

After Channel A ran a report on its evening news show on Monday, the Blue House said it was a mere mistake: The bureau’s head erroneously thought the firm was a public company due to its “name and characteristic of work.”

Opposition parties aren’t buying that explanation. The Liberty Korea Party threatened to bring the case to the National Assembly for a parliamentary investigation unless the Moon Blue House clears everything up – instead of blaming mistakes or rogue elements.

You can read more at the link, but the only thing that I would surprised by is if anyone in the Moon administration is held accountable for the domestic spying.  As we have seen with other Moon administration scandals they will go to great lengths to defend their allies.
