So you're saying that the vast majority of people who don't do the wrong
thing should have their privacy reduced in order to catch the small
percentage of people doing the wrong thing?

That the innocent majority should suffer so that the illegitimate majority
can just find another loophole that will protect them as they continue on
their merry way doing the wrong thing/s anyway?
