[quote]Germany's foreign intelligence agency eavesdropped on US Secretary of State John Kerry and his predecessor Hillary Clinton, German media reports say.
Der Spiegel magazine says the calls were collected accidentally and the recordings were destroyed immediately.
Mr Kerry has reportedly spoken to his German counterpart, Frank-Walter Steinmeier, about the claims.
Correspondents say the reports will embarrass Germany after a row about the US spying on Chancellor Angela Merkel.
Der Spiegel said the German intelligence agency had tapped a satellite phone call Mr Kerry made in 2013.
Reports in German daily newspaper Suddeutsche Zeitung and public broadcasters NDR and WDR said documents passed to the CIA show German spies had also eavesdropped on Hillary Clinton when she was US Secretary of State.[/quote]

Everyone does it. It's not surprising
Why do they even agree to take shit from US after Snowden leaks?
America: We are doing it for the better good. Fuck off.
Germany: Whoops sorry weren't intending on spy on [I]you[/I] in particular.
What's next? Italy going "We are only eavesdropping to hear the jokes, I swear!"?
"Accidentally".
What an adorable pile of bullshit.
This reminds me of civ, where if you catch someone spying they just say sorry or some version of, "We do what we want, bitches," and everyone goes about their business.

You do't really have any right to be pissed off about this, you were doing it with them.

I don't condone what my government does either, but you acting like your country isn't in this bed too is hilarious.
