I do [want to make an enemy of him]. (Though to be fair, I'm not nearly important enough to matter.)

Seriously though, investment is a form of partnership. Thiel has diminished his stature as an investor in my eyes, government access or not; I will never -- now or in the future -- accept money from a Thiel-backed fund. YMMV.
