You're totally falling for the plausible deniability governments engage in when conducting surveillance and espionage on their own citizens.

"Oh it wasn't our fault the software was wrote poorly. Not like we wrote laws around it or paid companies to share data with us."

What else do you believe that comes from the govt's mouth? Would you simply never believe they'd take advantage of us unless caught in some precise way, in some precise situation?

Government can start showing us it's loyal to us, or face attack of its own networks.
