37. Here's a translation (via Chrome) of the first four paragraphs.

Not too bad, for a machine translation. I left it exactly as Chrome translated it. The second paragraph is the one cited in the above post.

Hamburg - The U.S. National Security Agency ( NSA ) not only monitors the communication of European citizens, but apparently peeking also targeted the EU building. This is clear from secret documents that the whistleblower Edward Snowden owns and Der Spiegel could see in parts. In a "top secret" classified NSA paper in September 2010 describes how the intelligence attacked the EU's diplomatic representation in Washington.

Thus, not only bugs were installed in the building in the U.S. capital, but also the internal computer network was infiltrated. In this way, the Americans not only get access to meetings at the premises of the EU , but also to e-mails and internal documents on the computers.

The attack on the EU institutions is a further level of Spähaktivitäten the NSA. For weeks diving details about Prism , and other monitoring programs that the whistleblower Snowden has assembled. The British intelligence agency GCHQ will therefore result in a similar program called tenses, with the world's telephone and Internet connections to be monitored .

According to the documents, which SPIEGEL has read, the EU representation has been attacked in like manner as those in Washington at the United Nations. In the NSA document of September 2010, the Europeans are expressly named as an attack target.
