- Comment The handful of news articles that mentioned the DITU prior to revelations of NSA surveillance in the summer of 2013 did so mostly in passing. However, interviews with law enforcement officials, as well as technology industry representatives, reveal that the unit is the FBI's equivalent of the NSA and the primary liaison between the spy agency and many of America's most important technology companies, including Google, Facebook, YouTube, and Apple.- EP-EN based on:Harris, S.
