You're linking to an article on corporate spying. We're discussing spying on government officials on, what I can only assume, is a lot more serious matters, i.e waging wars.

This is a trust/image issue for the states, and it's really taking a beating right now.

Lets not make the same mistake that most people were making regarding the NSA before these leaks: it makes logical sense that EU governments would spy on everyone they technologically can; ergo we must assume that they are.

EU doesn't spy on anyone - we have no central intelligence. So let's not assume anything.

Assume away. But France is not Denmark and vice versa.
