I'm sure plenty of people think that using the surveillance state to further interests of American companies is perfectly cool. Whatever it takes for the economy!!!
But even if your attitude is "fuck companies from other countries," it's obviously not the case that all American companies can get the surveillance state to do their bidding. Just the, uh, "important" ones. Not the new ones, not the potential ones, just the big ones. The connected ones. The contributing ones.
