Somebody was just reminding me of that time the ADL spied on anti-apartheid activists on behalf of South Africa’s government. This old gem: Anti-Defamation League Settles Spying Lawsuit L.A. Times Archives Sept. 28, 1999 LOS ANGELES — Six years after it was accused of illegal spying, the Anti-Defamation League agreed Monday to a federal court settlement preventing it from obtaining information from any state employee or officer when it knows--or should know--the act is unlawful. The long-debated settlement, approved by U.S. District Judge Richard Paez, marks the final chapter in a suit initiated by former San Francisco Dist. Atty. Arlo Smith amid charges that associates of the Jewish civil rights group sold information on anti-apartheid groups to the government of South Africa.
