Yup, Austria is well known to be an active target of US intelligence agencies, not only because Vienna hosts one UNO site. We have exactly zero legal protection against such actions, and I am pretty sure the agents have no ethical or moral qualms about attacking any other EU citizen either. Yes, sometimes their actions may mean a net good for the global society, but many other times they may not. So please forgive me about not seeing the point of giving such agencies a break by not fixing open security vulnerabilities they are actively abusing. Everybody has a right to security.
