If conspiracy were our only worry, what a wonderful world it would be. However, dangerous developments like this happen all too often without supervillains cackling and masterminds plotting... and people make mistakes like this through innocent decisions. We don't need to worry only about conspiracy, seemingly arbitrary design choices undermine us at every turn. No one said "if only this room-sized computer were able to fit into a speck of dust and be powered by ambient temperature differentials I could spy on everyone!"... we want those things because it is convenient. Or because it can do things we couldn't do otherwise. The universe itself has it out for us.
