[Johannes Schneider]

michael perelman asked:

Michael,
I dont remember the topic was brought up here, but it was prominently
brought up in the German press and its sort of NSA hate-piece.
Name of the German company is Enercon:

On the WWW there are a few references e.g:

I think Udo Ulfkotte  http://www.ulfkotte.de  treats the case in his book:
'Marktplatz der Diebe'.

Hope this helps
