We are going to outlaw this sort of shit permanently. Total surveillance and lying are not how we are going to do our business in the future, it is a stupid, expensive, and ineffective way to do business. That is our information they are stealing and hiding to use against us, and we don't like it, and we are not going to learn to like it.

That is why they keep it secret, they know people don't like being watched without their permission, especially by a government that is fucking paranoid about being watched itself and sees them as the enemy.
