New Zealand Prime Minister Apologizes to Kim Dotcom

We reported earlier this week that the Prime Minister of New Zealand was ordering an inquiry into the facts surrounding the arrest of Kim Dotcom. On Friday, John Key officially apologized to Dotcom and to the people of New Zealand for unacceptable behavior on the part of the government.

It is the GCSB's responsibility to act within the law, and it is hugely disappointing that in this case its actions fell outside the law. I am personally very disappointed that the agency failed to fully understand the workings of its own legislation.
