      I think you’re trying to insinuate that the US government is the only one that’s buying data from data brokers to spy on its own citizens. I hope we can both agree that that’s bad and we don’t like that idea, but I don’t know what makes you think this isn’t also happening elsewhere. Do you have reason to believe it’s not?
