Unhappy

I hear on the morning news that the Strasbourg mob are debating taking the Yanks and ourselves to the courts for this ECHELON activity.
I find it ironically amusing that their concern is that our American cousins used the information obtained to screw up a bit of 'slush fund' dealing that was on the boil out east..... not a hint that such activity (the ECHELON thing) poses a threat to personal privacy - must get our priorities, right musn't we?
