To my experience it's been mostly weaker alliances spying on my alliance on server 6. But I am sure that most of the top alliances have spies planted in any alliance they deem as a threat. I retract my statement describing espionage as a tool used by "weak" alliances. I stick to the alliances being "unsure" though (kind of pointless description, if they were sure they wouldn't have had to spy on the alliance).
