Ruckus over Alleged NSA Post in Austria

If the USA was recently caught under the scanner of National Security Agency pouring into the private life of its residents, next in the list is Vienna.

It has now entered into a chaotic situation where speculations have been rife about the NSA's conduct. Many eyebrows have been raised over the presence of a building in the state where NSA may be a listening to the residents. These are only allegations but the U. S. and Austrian governments have denied any truth in such rumors.

They've denied any possibility of a major surveillance operation by the National Security Agency in the tower in Austria. According to them, this building is only another "Open Source Center" that looks after the information that is available in newspapers and on the Internet.

The speculations have their origin from the NSA whistleblower Edward Snowden. He had said that the NSA has been keeping an eye on the online activities of millions of residents all across the globe. However, the conservative-run Interior Ministry has denied any such operations.

Austria's National Security Council would organize a meeting to look into the matter. Vienna seems to be fighting against its reputation of being a spy capital of the world.
