Most intel people seem to admit that the US and certain EU nations use their spy agencies to bolster domestic companies. The US has been caught out repeatedly but do their best to hide it, France has been called out by a bunch of other countries as one of the worst offenders around. The Chinese are just shameless about it and couldn't are less what people think.
Since historical arguments don't work for you here's proof of Australia bugging one of the poorest nations on Earth in the midst of an oil trade deal and passing along the information to a huge. The minister in charge at the time now works for that company with a very lucrative salary.
The only reason we know this is because a high ranking agent first complained internally about limited resources being diverted away from anti-terror work in Indonesia. He then complained to the Intel Ombudsman and was again ignored. Then he went public. He's now had a trial going on for a decade, his lawyer is also being tried for taking on the case.
