The big difference between the US and other countries is the way it projects itself. There is a history of subjecting foreigners to the vagaries of American justice (extraordinary rendition, Kim Dotcom). America presumes to extend its sovereignty across the entire globe in the interest of self defense. This makes people worried. If China was extraditing Americans to Beijing and making them stand trial with evidence based on intercepts the US Government would go ballistic.
