Thousands of protesters in cities across Germany took part in demonstrations against spying by the U.S. and other countries.
An organization called Stop Watching Us, which describes itself as a “conglomeration of concerned citizens,” had called for protests in more than 30 cities across the country, according to its website. Florian Waechter, who organized the demonstrations, said in a telephone interview that his group doesn’t yet know how many people participated.
