15-9-2013: NSA follows the Money

+

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.
+ 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. +
