- <h3>15-9-2013: NSA follows the Money</h3>
- <p>Despite the EU allowing the NSA access to financial transaction data to
- track terrorists and organized crime, the NSA saw it necessary to
- target international payment processors including SWIFT and Visa.
- As terrorism and organized crime are covered by legal means, industrial
- espionage to improve the US economy is the only remaining US national
- interest within the NSA's mandate that would explain this illegal activity.<br>
- With Taler, exchanges will only learn the value of a merchant's transactions,
- not who paid or for what (governments may learn what was sold). Thus,
- the Taler exchange is a significantly less interesting target for industrial
- espionage.
