I had a longer response to this, but I will make its short with an
illustration, and allows us to digest.

Kenya GDP vs US GDP year 2015:
Kenya            : $63.4 billion per year
United States : $18.04 trillion per year

Relative value ratio:
Unites States : 284.5
Kenya            : 1

Relative value Comparison:
United States : 2850% larger
Kenya            : 99.65% smaller

So lets compare notes on those GDP percentages after 10 years with
that reasoning where we have one state have access to all our
insights, while we have zero of theirs. When you look at surveillance
in terms of how it affects parochial people who have no friction with
the state is loosing the bigger picture. It means your patents,
research, trade secrets, business deals are all with the big brother.
When Kenya goes to negotiate a business deal with US, they already
know what we discussed in private, and have already a counter proposal
to which we don't have any counter offer. This is just one example.
