Berlin: Against the backdrop of recent revelations about Prism and Tempora, industrial and economic espionage taking place under the guise of counter-terrorism cannot be ruled out. An anonymous source quoted in “the Guardian” maintains that the focus of Tempora is on four issues: “security, terror, organized crime, and economic well-being”. The intercepted data, which is first captured and then evaluated, includes primarily email in addition to telephony meta data.
