Is there actually any nation on Earth where powerful and/or connected people can't screw you over if they really want to and if you have no other powerful or connected people on your side? (and no money, etc.)
The thing about this stuff that's really alarming is that any random script kiddie could also do this by coaxing your machine into downloading something. That greatly increases the surface area of people who can screw you. Given the abysmally awful security profile of a lot of consumer software and devices this is very plausible.
