Spying on your political enemies is a serious threat to democracy.

Not many seem to care, frankly, that the government is spying on them. I have some hope that they might care about America turning into a dictatorship where elections are decided by abuse of power.

On the other hand, I also see many reasons to fear that they won't care, as long as "their side" wins.
