I do understand. My country (Australia) has US spy bases in it too ( https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pine_Gap ), which they have also used to spy on Australians. In Australia's case (and I would be willing to bet that it's the same for Germany), it was a quid pro quo arrangement. Australians spy on Americans and pass the information to the NSA. Americans spy on Australians and pass it to the Australian spy agencies - thereby avoiding restrictions on domestic spying. Seriously, your problem is with the BND, not NSA, because NSA is going to spy on you regardless of whether you want them to. It's pretty much their job. You just don't want the BND actively helping them, which is why your energy should be directed towards them.

I want the NSA to leave Germany. They can spy where they want, but not from within Germany.

If you are German, the NSA likely won't listen to you.

The German government is responsible for the presence of the NSA and it has the means to largely end NSA activities in Germany, but not the will.

You may want to talk to your government about that as they are the ones enabling it.

That's not all the US is doing in Deutschland. "[T]he slides show that the facilities at Ramstein perform an essential function in lethal drone strikes conducted by the CIA and the U.S. military in the Middle East, Afghanistan and Africa."[0]

So it is not just spying on the EU that is being enabled by Germany's government, it is the entirety of the US drone program that is being used across the Middle East and north Africa. This program, operating as it does outside of declared war zones, is very probably illegal under German law.

I highly doubt that as most German laws don't apply to US military stationed inside Germany (SOFA exemptions).
