> Recently, only 36% of suspicious activity reports from US companies originated from the surveillance of private messages anyway.

I don't have many opinions on this but this sort of lazy logic would make me nervous. 36% is not a small number and that's before the folks doing this activity find out that private message is less patrolled.

Yeah, that number is actually really high. I’m wondering how noisy those reports are
"Recently, only 36% of violent crime happened in broad daylight in front of a police station" would be a pretty wild statistic. Even a fraction of the reports being positives would be surprising.
