Honour among data thieves II

The "common understanding" that exists among the Five Eyes countries that they won't spy on each other seems to be less and less commonly held:

"Obama: No country where we have no-spy agreement," Associated Press, 11 February 2014.

See Honour among data thieves, UKUSA version for a look at how the "understanding", which does seem to exist, probably works in practice.

Update 2 May 2014:

U.S. National Security Advisor Susan Rice also asserts (says the New York Times) that "the United States [does] not have no-spy agreements with any of its close allies, even with the other members of the so-called Five Eyes — the United States, Britain, Canada, Australia and New Zealand" (David Sanger, "U.S. and Germany Fail to Reach a Deal on Spying," New York Times, 1 May 2014).
