Your thinking seems to be based on the idea that "the government" are the good guys. This is extremely naive - and you even mention an example of a government that does not respect basic human rights. These tools will be abused and must be rolled backed to save freedom and democracy. Authoritarian states working together on a techno-based total control vision is a very bad development. Thinking about it, I do not understand how any neutral person would take your position - it reads like astroturfing propaganda work. |

The "but we just do what the others do" claim (which is afaik false) also made this seem fishy to me.
Especially as every hacker knows: When there is data, this data will be abused, sooner or later. There hasn't been any recorded exception to this rule. Anywhere. Ever. It's like a law of nature.
That's why the zeroes rule of data protection reads: Do not produce data. Only not existing data can't be abused.
