neither of what you mentioned do it on SUCH SCALE. like surveilling HUNDREDS OF MILIONS of people, putting malware to thousands of networks, collecting metadata of all users, trying to hack to other systems/networks, putting malware , weaking security standards on purpose and so on
leaving such great power to few organisations (better yet - without any supervising and governing) it's just DANGEROUS.....
