In the military, actively seeking (and using) information you have no right/classification to see is a serious offence. According to articles I've read, not a single NSA employee was disciplined for e.g. spying on their SOs or Exs. Also: If the NSA doesn't have Swiss and German citizens working for it, it's not a very good intelligence agency. And we know for a fact that it is, at least as far as reach is concerned.
