President Toomas Hendrik Ilves said in an interview that as far as he knows, the Estonian security services are not cooperating with the NSA or using data collected by its monitoring programs. He criticized the monitoring of the EU institutions, but pointed out that the European countries' indignation is somewhat hypocritical since several major European countries use similar methods. He emphasized the need for European data clouds subject to the EU legislation, which would prevent NSA monitoring and reminded that a large share of private data have been made available by individuals themselves.
