The fallout from the recent revelations that the United States conducts large scale electronic surveillance continues, with German federal minister of the interior, Hans-Peter Friedrich, saying people who fear being spied upon should not use US websites such as Google and Facebook.

Speaking to the Die Welt, Friedrich said: “If you worry about your communications being intercepted in any way, don’t use services that go through American servers.”
