Can you clarify what you mean with domestic spying? Are you concerned about other people in your household having access to your Gmail account?

Domestic spying in this case is referring to the United States spying on its own citizens.
Which doesn't actually matter if you're in the 96% of people that are not from the USA.

This argument "but we don't spy on USA citizens so now we're all good and ethical" doesn't make much sense to me. If a Dutch company allegedly spies on foreign customers, it really wouldn't change my (Dutch) opinion about my privacy at that company.
