Which was sort of the point

US and British spies appear to have flummoxed the people at Deutsche Telekom. Despite reports that the British and Americans had been making merry with the Telco’s networks to spy on German citizens, DT said that it cant find any indication that the spooks had been there.

"We are looking into every indication of possible manipulations but have not yet found any hint of that in our investigations so far. We're working closely with IT specialists and have also contacted German security authorities. It would be completely unacceptable if a foreign intelligence agency were to gain access to our network," the spokesman added.

Der Spiegel said it had seen information suggesting the NSA and GCHQ had gained access to the networks of Deutsche Telekom and smaller German provider Netcologne.
