> EU and NSA, same actors, different starting conditions

that's frankly one of the most ridiculous things I've ever read in my entire life.

Care to explain what's your rationale behind it?

Where's, for example, the European Snowden?

Where's proof of EU spying not only allied leaders, which is already bad enough, but the citizens of the country they work for?

The European Snowden was Snowden.

The UK is a part of the Five Eyes and Snowden was stationed in Switzerland while doing mass surveillance.

Five eyes does not include EU: it's almost every western nation except eu!
