This is simply democracy speaking and acting. The people do not want this kind of surveillance. In a democracy, the people rule. If those who should represent and administrate the people's will are failing to do their job, then their decisions and "administration" have no validity, and the people take power back into their hands. Because no one else can do that for them.
